Pediatric orthopedics

The child in focus

Pediatric orthopaedics is important because it deals specifically with the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of bone, joint and muscle disorders in children and adolescents. Children are still growing, so orthopaedic problems in them often require a different approach than in adults. Early detection and treatment can prevent long-term health problems and ensure optimal physical development.

Frequently asked questions about integrative pediatrics

It could be a harmless cause, such as growing pains, but it is important to rule out more serious causes. In particular, pain that increases continuously over several days without a pain-free phase should be investigated promptly. Early diagnosis and treatment can be crucial to avoid long-term problems and ensure the health and well-being of your child.
