Correct selection of children's shoes away from flat feet
Ben Wang, August 13th: Dr. Wu Kunying, chief health consultant at Kong Jiang Health Shoes Store, recently spoke at Huaqiang North Maoye, highlighting a growing concern among parents regarding children's foot health. According to Wu, many parents are unaware of how improper footwear can negatively affect their children’s feet, leading to issues like flat feet and even long-term complications in severe cases. She emphasized that early awareness and action are crucial to prevent these problems from worsening.
Wu advised parents to be more mindful when selecting shoes for their children. Choosing the right pair of health shoes, along with proper insoles, can significantly reduce the risk of foot deformities. She encouraged parents to look for shoes designed with foot care in mind, as this can help support healthy foot development from an early age.
In addition to footwear, Wu suggested incorporating simple exercises like walking on tiptoes to help strengthen and develop the arches of children’s feet. Parents should also pay attention to their child’s posture and sleeping habits, as poor alignment can contribute to foot issues. She recommended regular check-ups every four months for children aged 4 to 14, ensuring any potential problems are identified and addressed early.
