Platypodia.

[Natalinka]

To my child 1 years and 3 months. (we go from 11 months). Our doctor speaks, that at malyshki the platypodia and is necessary to go constantly in orthopedic footwear (with an arch support). Even at home it is necessary to go in special footwear.
My child goes at home barefoot. Even earlier I read what to wear footwear with an arch support to children in the age of till 3th years protivopakazano as it can cause or call an atrophy of muscles. But our doctor speaks what to go barefoot on a floor very harmfully.
So to that to believe? How to not do much harm to own child?
The dear doctor, help or assist to understand please what footwear and where it is necessary to wear.
