Small Children
Often Develop
Flat Feet
BY II. n. BUNDEsEN, NJ d.

BY II, n. BUNDEsEN, NJ D.
WHEN most children begin 10
walk, 1t is often noted that the foot
turns outward. This is due 70
lack OF control or power in the leg
muscles, together with some loose
ness Of the hgaments which sup
port the ankle.
A habit OF turning the feet in.
ward al this age is common. THIS
Is device on the child's part 10
assist the weak muscles, 20 raise
the inner border Of the foot and
help try 10 support the body
weight normally. The habit should
be encouraged until the need for It
j., past. Then It will be found that
the child walks with the feet par
allel.
Often, it will appear that a child
has fat feet which turn outward
when the condition is due only TO
the presence OF large fat pad on
the sole Of the foot.
None OF these conditions Is alb
normal. However, many children
do develop true fatfoot. The feet
turn outward during walking and
standing and the arch is also hat
tened The fatfoot may be one OF
two types. The first is known as
mobile hatfoot and the second,
rigid hatfoot.
The mobile type may be brought
on bv muscular weakness, loose
ness or weakness of the hgaments
or the wearing OF poor quality
shoes. In the rigid type, the rigid
ity or stiffness may be due TO scar
like tissue. 10 bony changes, or TO
spasm OF the muscles.
In cases OF mobile hAtfoot,
treatment consists Of restoring the
normal shape OF the foot by using
shoes which correct the weight
bearing position Of the feet. The
shoe. in these instances, is one with
a raised inner border Of the heel.
Often the upper- part Of the shoe
is also stiEeued. The second part
Of the treatment consists OF tram
ing the muscles 10 hold the foot at
the proper position.
| have outlined suggestions for
these exercises. which can be emf
ployed under the directions OF
physician, and ] shall be glad to
send them to everyone writing IN
and enclosing se.f-addreSsed,
stamped envelope. Names will not
be used. The exercises must De
used daily over a long period OF
time in order TO obtain permanent
results.
In rigid hstfoot some type Of
operative treatment is usually
necessary. Manipulation Of the
foot after the child has been put
10 sleep with an anesthetic, fol-
lowed by the use Of cast is EN-
ployed when the trouble is due TO
iibrous or scarlike tissue. When
the condition is produced by bony
changes an operation is needed.
When the trouble is due TO spasm,
an operation is also the method Of
treatment employed.
Flat feet may be painful and
disabling. Hence, children with fat
feet should be promptly and prop
srly treated.

now swarming with them.
The textile lobby is after high
prices. The meat bloc wants price

lobby is after a better shake for
butter, either in more price or more
subsidy.
Congress asks who. IL anybody,
is TO blame for the squeeze on food.
Senator Wherry OF Nebraska and
Congressman Keefe of Wisconsin
