It is very common for children to start walking in a pigeon toed manner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In most instances this corrects itself naturally, or with conservative management in the early years of growth. When the pigeon toed alignment persists into adolescence and adulthood it can be difficult to correct.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The in-toe position of the feet can be caused by an internal twist, or torsion, of the thigh or shin bones, or by a muscular imbalance. If the cause is muscular, gradual improvement with a stretching and strengthening program is attainable. If the cause is bone malalignment, significant improvement will be limited and management of the in-toe position is required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your podiatrist can distinguish between the various causes of the pigeon toed foot position and advise on what treatment or management is required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-background is-style-wide\" style=\"background-color:#31a69e;color:#31a69e\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\" id=\"have-questions-about-pigeon-toed-have-a-look-at-our-contact-us-page-or-call-us-on-54414822\">Have questions about Pigeon Toed?<br>Have a look at our\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/footsmart.net.au\/wp-admin\/post.php?post=5&amp;action=edit\"><strong>Contact Us<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0page or call us\u00a0on\u00a054414822<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/footsmart.net.au\/online-booking-request\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"285\" height=\"75\" src=\"https:\/\/footsmart.net.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Book-Appointment-1.png\" alt=\"Book online appointment footsmart podiatry\" class=\"wp-image-2179\"\/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-background is-style-wide\" style=\"background-color:#31a69e;color:#31a69e\"\/>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The term in-toeing, or being pigeon toed, refers to when your feet point inwards when standing or walking.
