Paediatric Orthopaedics
Home > Paediatric Orthopaedics
Overview
Children’s bones and joints are different from adults — they grow, they heal faster, but they also have unique vulnerabilities. Kedar Hospital’s Paediatric Orthopaedics service in Chennai is dedicated to the diagnosis and treatment of musculoskeletal conditions in infants, children, and adolescents, delivered with the gentleness and expertise that young patients deserve.
About the Condition
Paediatric orthopaedic conditions include fractures (especially growth plate injuries), developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH), clubfoot, limb length discrepancy, scoliosis in adolescents, bone infections (osteomyelitis), juvenile arthritis, and sports-related injuries. Early diagnosis and appropriate management are critical to prevent long-term disability or growth disturbance. Parents often notice limping, deformity, swelling, or reluctance to use a limb.
