Pediatric Orthopedics

Act now, so your child can move easier. 

Watching your child grow and develop is one of the true pleasures of being a parent. But genetic issues and accidents may affect their bones and joints in unexpected ways, causing pain, slowing their growth, and even stealing some of their newfound independence. With the right treatment under children’s orthopedic doctors, many of these issues may be corrected before they become bigger problems, helping you get your child back on a pain-free developmental track. 

Pediatric Orthopedic Specialists 

Pediatric orthopedic specialists focus on musculoskeletal problems in children who are still growing, including newborns through teenagers, because the response to injury, infection or deformity in the musculoskeletal system of a growing child differs from that of an adult. Pediatric orthopedic surgeons work in specialty children’s orthopedic hospitals such as Palm Beach Children’s Hospital and West Boca Medical Center to ensure children with multiple medical conditions receive the multidisciplinary care they need from different pediatric specialists. 

Pediatric orthopedic surgeons treat various conditions of a growing child’s musculoskeletal system, including:

  • Limb and spine deformities noted at birth or later in life (clubfoot, scoliosis, limb length differences in the legs or arms) * Paley Orthopedic & Spine Institute
  • Gait abnormalities (limping)
  • Broken bones
  • Torn ligaments (anterior cruciate ligament injuries, rotator cuff tears)
  • Tendinitis and bursitis
  • Bone, joint and muscle infections

Pediatric orthopedic surgeons also work with other pediatric specialists to treat complicated conditions such as:

  • Bone tumors (including bone cancer)
  • Cerebral palsy
  • Juvenile arthritis
  • Muscular dystrophy
  • Spina bifida
  • Scoliosis
