Dear Sir/Madam,

We extend our sincere gratitude for choosing Gleneagles Hospital Malaysia for your healthcare requirements.

Thank you for reaching out to us regarding your daughter’s walking pattern. We understand your concern and appreciate your attentiveness to her development and comfort.

Tiptoe walking in children, particularly when it persists beyond the early walking years, may sometimes indicate underlying conditions such as muscle tightness, neurological issues, or orthopedic concerns. Since your daughter experiences discomfort and pain when attempting to walk flat-footed, we recommend a comprehensive evaluation.

We advise you to schedule a consultation with a Paediatrician or a Paediatric Orthopaedic Specialist. This specialist will be able to assess her gait, examine muscle tone, and determine if further investigations or therapy are necessary.

Any advice, recommendations, or information provided by the Company, its affiliates, employees, moderators, medical practitioners, and representatives within the Forum is not to be taken as conclusive advice. It is intended as a suggestion and not a substitute for consulting with qualified medical practitioners. Users are encouraged to seek professional advice tailored to their specific circumstances.
