Doctor's advice:

• “A child should grow and develop according to his or her age, do physical exercises, have a good muscle mass to support the osteoarticular apparatus. Thus, children will have less problems.”
• “It is worth to see a doctor if you noticed the following changes in the constitution: suddenly, a child began to walk unsteadily, put a feet unevenly, distortions and curvatures appeared, the shoulder lowered, something is wrong with the feet, and also pain in osteoarticular apparatus, in muscles.”
• “Children have become less active recently because of the inflow of various electronic amusements. If we compare the statistics per 10 thousand children with previous years, the amount of postural disorders, pains in the back increased, not significantly, but still. In this case you should see an orthopaedist who will determine the diagnosis and choose the right correction method for pathological processes in their initial phase that have not yet caused serious diseases.”
