Pronation caused by eversion of the foot is a very common foot and ankle disease in children. A 5-year-old is a little older, but it should be okay. Corrective shoes need to be determined based on the child's degree of valgus, cause, age and other comprehensive factors. There are many types of orthotic shoes, and the orthopedic doctor will customize the plan according to the specific situation of the child. Moreover, regular follow-up visits are required to check the progress of the correction. Correction is not a short-term behavior, but a long-term process. Orthopedic insoles and shoe bodies must be customized to truly correct the problem. At the same time, depending on the patient's condition, some may need to cooperate with clinical rehabilitation treatment. Therefore, specific issues must be analyzed in detail, and each child's situation is different.
