Hi All,

I'm looking for some advice regarding this child. I have not actually seen this child
in clinic yet but her mum ( a friend) has rang with great concern for her 15 month old girl.
She walked when she was 11 mths old (has been walking for 4 mths), but will not let her right heel touch the ground.
She wore prewalkers for about the first month of walking but will no longer wear shoes.
She walks a heel-toe gait on the left but toe walks on the right.
Pregnancy was normal, caesarean birth.
Has a sister with no anomalies.
I have asked her mum to palpate around the heel area and I've got the feedback that her 15 month old will not let this occur, pulls foot away.
Her mum intends to bring the child for assessment this week, I have never seen a child this young so any advice and guidance would be welcome.
Cheers,
Curly
