(Health-NewsWire.Net, July 10, 2015 ) Titusville, FL -- Children with Sever's disease or calcaneal apophysitis experience pain at the back or at the bottom of their feet. This pain does not easily go away, and feels worse when they use their feet. Doctors recommend the use of insoles for kids that could support the heel, such as Hydrofeet® Kids, to help children manage the pain associated with the said foot condition.
Hydrofeet® Kids is the only arch support for kids in the market today. It works the same way as its bigger counterpart Hydrofeet® shoe insoles for women and men. Hydrofeet® Kids is made of thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) with liquid glycerin inside. These two work to provide reflexology-like massage as the user walks or runs.
The ingredients of this shoe insoles for kids are also safe for children because the TPU is medical grade and antimicrobial, while the glycerin is vegetable based and approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Hydrofeet® Kids is also machine or hand washable, and could be air dried.
Sever's disease is a foot condition common among children 8 to 14 years old. It is defined by the American College of Foot and Ankle Surgeons (ACFAS) as the inflammation of the heels' growth plate. The heel bone or calcaneus only stops growing when the child reaches the age of 14. Until then, a child may experience calcaneal apophysitis from too much stress on the physis or growth plate.
Pain from Sever's disease could range from bearable to unbearable. Those children who overuse their growth plate have a greater chance of having inflamed physis. Kids who participate in sports, who have tight Achilles' tendon, are obese, flatfooted, or high-arched might develop calcaneal apophysitis.
This foot condition can be treated by casting the foot and ankle, giving the child anti-inflammatory medicines, having the child undergo therapies, reducing his/her physical activities, or simply giving him/her shoe insoles for kids. Unlike regular shoe inserts or custom orthotics, Hydrofeet® Kids does not only give support, but helps the growth plate heal as well.
The foot massage that Hydrofeet® Kids gives improves blood circulation, thereby hastening the healing of Sever's disease. It also provides cushioning, and absorbs the shock from running and jumping. Using Hydrofeet® Kids regularly could eventually heal the child's calcaneal apophysitis, and totally alleviate the pain.
Midwest Health Solutions is an authorized seller of Hydrofeet® Kids and Hydrofeet® for women and men that could be purchased on Amazon.
