Area of Science:

  • Orthopedics
  • Pediatric Medicine
  • Sports Medicine

Context:

  • Foot pain is a frequent complaint in children and adolescents.
  • Pain often presents without obvious clinical signs, necessitating a thorough diagnostic approach.
  • Commonly, pain is localized to the heel, with midfoot and forefoot pain being less frequent.

Purpose:

  • To review the causes of foot pain in pediatric patients with a normal clinical presentation.
  • To discuss the etiology, clinical aspects, and management of various pediatric foot conditions.
  • To highlight differential diagnoses for persistent or unclear cases of pediatric foot pain.

Summary:

  • Sever's disease, an overload of the calcaneal apophysis, is common in athletic or obese adolescents and treated with reduced activity and supportive footwear.

  • Avascular necrosis of metatarsal heads (Freiberg's disease) and navicular bone (Köhler's disease) are discussed, with conservative treatment being standard.
  • Tarsal coalition can lead to rigid flatfoot, and other considerations include stress fractures, infections, and tumors.

    • Impact:

    • Provides a concise overview of common pediatric foot pain etiologies for clinicians.
    • Emphasizes conservative management strategies for prevalent conditions like Sever's disease.
    • Aids in the differential diagnosis of pediatric foot pain, especially when the clinical examination is normal.
