Question

When babies are learning to walk, they tend to toe-curl even when barefoot. What type of shoes is most suitable for them as they learn to walk? What have been the past treatment scenarios and outcomes? What kind of assistance is needed? Please contact via phone or email.

Answer

The primary purpose of shoes for eight-month-old babies is to keep them warm. As they start to crawl, stand, and walk, wearing appropriate shoes becomes very important. By ten months, due to the immaturity of their skeletal development, wearing unsuitable shoes may affect their walking posture and may cause uneven pressure on foot joints, leading to joint damage and affecting the normal development of the feet.
