Congenital & Acquired Deformities

Loading

At Jain’s Kid Orthocare we understand that discovering your child has clubfoot can be very distressing. This condition, often identified through ultrasound or at birth, presents as a foot that is malformed, rotated downward, and turned inward. Dr. Rohit Jain, our pediatric orthopedic surgeon specializes in clubfoot treatment, which needs to be initiated within the first or second week of baby’s birth to correct foot positioning effectively and prevent long-term complications.

Dr Rohit Jain offers comprehensive clubfoot treatment options:

    Stretching and Casting (Ponseti Method)
  • Under Dr. Jain’s careful supervision, this gentle technique involves softly casting your baby's foot into the correct posture. Every week, we reposition and recast the foot until it straightens, culminating in a minor Achilles tendon lengthening procedure. Most children respond positively, needing only braces and special shoes afterward. To ensure the best outcomes, consistent stretching exercises at home will be recommended.
  • Surgery
  • For more severe cases of clubfoot, Dr. Jain may recommend surgical intervention to stretch or rearrange tendons and ligaments to achieve the desired foot posture. After surgery, your child will wear a brace for a year to prevent recurrence, along with a cast for two months for optimal healing.

Conveniently located to serve families in Kalyan, Dombivli, Thane, Mulund, Kalwa, Diva, and nearby suburbs, Jain’s Kid Orthocare is dedicated to delivering personalized treatment plans for your child’s health and mobility.

Knock knees

Is your child showing signs of knock-knees? You’re not alone, and we're here to help! Dr. Rohit Jain, an orthopedic doctor for children, specializes in diagnosing and treating these conditions.
Knock-knees typically become noticeable around age 3, where the knees appear to bend toward each other, especially when the child stands with their legs together. By age 7, most children will have a normal amount of slight knock-knee, which is completely natural. However, if you’re concerned about your child’s leg alignment, Dr. Jain offers the expertise you need to ensure their growing bodies remain healthy and strong.
At our pediatric clinic, we understand that parents want the best for their children. If the knock-knees or bow legs are pathological, Dr. Jain provides cutting-edge treatments specific to your child’s needs. For young infants, he utilizes minimally invasive techniques like growth modulation with 8 plates, ensuring a gentle approach to correcting imbalances. For older children and adolescents, corrective osteotomy may be recommended.
With Dr. Rohit Jain's specialized care, you can rest easy knowing your little one is in the hands of an expert committed to making their journey as comfortable as possible. Don’t wait—schedule an appointment today to discuss your concerns and discover the best path forward for your child’s orthopedic health!

Bow Legs

Loading

Did you know that bow legs are quite common in infants? It's true! Infants are born with this natural condition where their knees appear to "bow" out from their bodies. However, most children see their knees begin to straighten out between 18 and 24 months, often just as they start to take their first steps around 12 months of age. As a parent, it’s important to recognize the signs. If your child stands with their feet together and their toes point straight ahead but their knees don't touch, they likely have bow legs. While this is typically just a phase, Dr. Rohit Jain, as a pediatric bone specialist, emphasizes the importance of monitoring your child's development. Remember, early intervention can make all the difference!

If you have concerns about your child's bow legs or just want to ensure their development is on track, reach out to Dr. Rohit Jain today. With his support, you can ensure your child grows up strong and healthy!

Treatment for Bow Legs & Knock Knees include:

If it is a pathological condition, we treat young infants with minimally invasive surgery like growth modulation with 8 plates while in case of older children or adolescents, the treatment is corrective Osteotomy.

Trauma-Fractures in children

As parents, we know an active child is a happy child, but this can sometimes lead to bone injuries. According to Dr. Rohit Jain, a leading sports injury specialist and pediatric orthopedic doctor, fractures are common, especially in children who engage in sports or rough play.

Types of Fractures:

  • Greenstick Fractures : Partial breaks that bend rather than completely shatter.
  • Compound Fractures : Bones that break through the skin, requiring immediate care.
  • Transverse Fractures : Horizontal breaks often from direct impact.
  • Comminuted Fractures : Bones shatter into several pieces, typically from high-impact activities.
  • Stress Fractures : Small cracks due to repetitive stress, common in athletes.

Effective Treatment Options

For minor fractures, we use advanced non-surgical methods and specialized plasters to aid healing. In more severe cases, Dr. Jain may recommend surgery for better recovery. Don’t let a fracture hinder your child’s active lifestyle! Contact us today.

Dr. Rohit Jain, a pediatric orthopedic doctor specializing in treating young patients, offers comprehensive care for bone infections (osteomyelitis) in children. Dr. Jain is committed to providing expert and compassionate care

Understanding Bone Infections

Bone infections, or osteomyelitis, involve inflammation of the bone caused by bacterial infections, most commonly Staphylococcus aureus (staph infection). Children, particularly those of preschool age, are more susceptible due to their rich blood supply in growing bones. These infections often occur in the long bones of the legs and arms.

Common symptoms of Bone Infections

  • Severe pain and swelling around the infected area
  • Fever and/or chills
  • Soreness, warmth, and redness in the infected area
  • General fatigue
  • Inability to support weight on and move the affected limbs (noticeable in newborns and infants)

Importance of Early Treatment

Untreated bone infections can lead to severe complications such as bone destruction, abscesses, septic arthritis, deformities, and disability. Early detection and treatment are crucial for preventing these outcomes.

Effective Treatments

Dr. Jain emphasizes a multidisciplinary approach to treat bone infections, which may include:

  • Antibiotics (IV or oral) targeting specific infections
  • Surgery to drain abscesses or remove infected bone segments in severe cases
  • Bone grafts to replace dead or infected bone

For expert care and treatment of bone infections in children, trust Dr. Rohit Jain. His dedication to young patients ensures they receive the best possible care for a healthy and active future.

Sports Injury

    -Lower brachial plexus (C7, C8, T1): Affects muscles of the forearm and hand.

Tumor Treatment in Children

Recent advances in the multidisciplinary management of musculoskeletal tumors in children and adolescents have dramatically increased cure rates for those with non-metastatic disease. New orthopedic techniques and devices, alongside cutting-edge radiation oncology technologies, offer better local control of primary tumors and promise fewer late adverse effects. While these advancements are promising, the journey doesn't end at treatment. Awareness and proactive management of potential late effects are crucial. We are committed to provide comprehensive care that extends beyond treatment to ensure the long-term health of our young patients.
