[quote=Anonymous]Hi, my daughter is slightly pidgeon-toed and we are seeing an orthopedic surgeon about this - that's a much better judge of an orthopedic condition than a PT, in my opinion. She also informed us that the research was out in children UNDER 18 MONTHS, but that over age 2, pigeon-toed walking is likely to lead to early arthritis and bad knees... our DD is only 15 mon, so we're waiting it out a bit, but have multiple follow-up scheduled already - we're seeing Dr. Tosi at Children's Hosp. I recommend you seek out an expert... Additionally, knee-walking can also lead to femoral antversion - where the thigh bones in the hips turn the wrong way... [/quote]
