Toe Walking in Children - Is It a Sign of Trouble?

Are you concerned about your child walking on his toes all the time? While toe walking in children is common and eventually fades away, it could indicate an issue if your child walks on his toetips even after 3 years of age. Watch this video to know all about children toe walking, such as causes, treatment, prevention, and more.

Toe walking is a common practice for many kids when they just begin to walk. Most children grow out of it as they grow older and it usually disappears after the age of three. However, in case your child continues to walk on his toes constantly, then you may need to consult a physician regarding this habit. This video gives you information on the causes of toe walking in kids, treatment, and when to consult your doctor.

Hello I am 9 and I have been toe Walking since Learned how to walk I am now getting an operation to help me walk normally wear to just fix the whole problem please wish me luck!

I toe walked really bad. So bad that all my friends and family made fun of me for it. As I got older, for me to try and not toe walk, I would walk with my toes pointed out, sort of like a duck walk. My problem is that my tendon in the back of my heal is really tight.


I am 43 and even to this day, I walk on my toes, but just a little. My heal sits about 1/4 of an inch off the ground when I stand with my toes pointed forward.


With that said, I was the fasted 300 meter runner in the state of Ohio in my high school days. Most people may not know this, but most sprinter record holders also have the same issue that I have.


I always knew that I could run fast, and my high school is a huge school of 1, 400 kids, and 90% black. I knew that I was gifted when I could run a 40 in 4.3 in highschool. I loved the attention partly because I was the only white man on the football team and yet the fastest. But yeah, I sure do walk funny. I bounce when I walk.

Would you recommend going camping with a older child wearing serial casting for tip toe walking? There will be tons of uneven walking, dirt, sand, sweaty, bugs etc...
