Childhood is flexible. So is the timetable.

Most of what parents fear when they look at a child's legs is a phase with an expiry date — bowed toddler legs that straighten, in-toed feet that unwind, flat arches that build. The skill in children's orthopaedics isn't operating. It's telling the phase from the problem.

Dr. Khanna's Wednesday evening clinic does exactly that: examine the child (never in a hurry, always with parents watching), plot the finding against the growth calendar, and then — only then — decide between watchful waiting, casting, or surgery. Counselling comes at every stage, because a parent who understands the plan is half the treatment.

Normal — or Not?

Six worries, five of them phases

The most common things parents bring in — and what they usually turn out to be.

Bowed legs

Normal under about two years — most toddlers bow before they straighten. Persistent, one-sided or worsening bows get checked.

Knock knees

The three-to-five-year phase — knees that knock then even out. Measured, charted, and usually outgrown.

In-toeing (pigeon toes)

Feet that point in — mostly unwinds with growth; the twist's location decides whether to simply watch.

Flat feet

Flexible and painless is a variant, not a disease — the arch builds through childhood. Stiff or painful flat feet get reviewed.

Tip-toe walking

A normal toddler phase for many; persistent one-sided or constant toe-walking deserves a look.

"Double-jointed"

Hypermobility is usually harmless flexibility — pain, fatigue or frequent injuries with it gets assessed.

The pattern matters more than any single look — that's what the exam and the growth calendar settle.

What We Treat

The real work, gently done

The conditions that genuinely need treatment — staged care that grows with the child.

Club foot (CTEV)

Ponseti casting — gentle serial casts from the first weeks, then boots-and-bar. The method that changed club feet worldwide.

Hip screening (DDH)

Infant hips checked — clicks, breech births and family history get early ultrasound, because early is easy.

Growth-plate fractures

Children's bones grow from the plate — these aren't mini-adult breaks, and they get specialist care and follow-up.

Limb-length differences

Measured, charted and timed — small gaps watched, significant ones planned for as the child grows.

Bone & joint infections

The limp-with-fever emergencies — same-day diagnosis and treatment, because joints don't forgive delay.

Hip conditions of childhood

Perthes and slipped capital femoral epiphysis — the school-year limps that move fast when they move.

Sooner, not later

Childhood signs that don't wait for the next check-up

Limp or refusing to walk + fever — possible bone or joint infection; same-day, not tomorrow
Pain that wakes the child from sleep — night pain deserves review, not "growing pains" as a default
Club foot at birth — Ponseti casting works best starting in the first weeks; earlier is easier
Deformity after a fall + tenderness over a growth plate — children's fractures hide in the plates
A school-year child with a new limp — hip conditions of childhood move quietly and fast
The Journey

From first look to fully grown

Children aren't small adults — the pace, the plaster room and the follow-up are all built for them.

01
The child-friendly exam

Play-based, unhurried, parents in the room — a child who's comfortable shows us more than one who's frightened.

02
The chart & the calendar

Findings plotted against growth charts — many answers are "let's watch, with dates", and that's a real plan.

03
Casting when it works

Ponseti serial casts, fracture-friendly plaster — the child-friendly plaster room where gentleness is the protocol.

04
Follow-up till growth completes

The long, boring, wonderful follow-up — because children grow, and the plan grows with them.

Common Questions

Every parent's five

The questions asked in every pediatric ortho waiting room — answered the way Dr. Khanna answers them on Wednesdays.

All 27 FAQs

Usually not. Flexible, painless flat feet are a normal variant — the arch develops through childhood, and expensive "arch support" shoes change very little. If the foot is stiff, painful, or the child tires unusually fast, that's when we assess properly. Most families leave with reassurance, not a bill.

Most toddler bowing is a normal phase that self-corrects by age two to three — no braces, and vitamins only if a deficiency actually shows on testing (we check when the pattern or age suggests it). Persistent, one-sided, or worsening bowing gets X-rays and a proper plan. The chart decides, not the neighbour's advice.

It's the gentlest effective treatment there is — which is exactly why it replaced big surgery worldwide. Babies feed comfortably right after cast changes; the casts go on calmly, come off weekly, and the foot moves gradually into place. Compare that with the alternative, and "gentle" is the honest word.

Most heal completely with proper care — but this is exactly why children's fractures aren't treated as small-adult ones. The plate is where growth happens, so these injuries get precise alignment, specialist follow-up, and monitoring till growth completes. Caught and treated properly, the long-term outlook is usually excellent.

Years — and that's a feature, not a bug. Children grow, and what's fine at five needs re-checking at nine. Follow-up runs on a printed calendar till growth completes, so nothing gets "forgotten fine". Most visits are quick, cheerful confirmations; the calendar exists for the few that shouldn't be.
