Toe walking is a special kind of walking pattern in which the toes and balls of the feet touch the ground, but the heels do not. It is usually common in toddlers who are just beginning to walk. Toe walking is not a matter of concern if your child is below two years of age, as they are still learning a stable walking pattern. If your child is above two years of age and still follows the pattern of toe walking, it may be due to habit formation, muscular dystrophy, or certain neurological issues. It can be corrected with proper guidance and supportive measures.
