Ready for Back to School?

August 12, 2021 by OrthoNOW

It is important to make sure your children are prepared for going back to school. That includes taking preventive measures for pediatric orthopedic health.

Here are some Orthopedic Care Tips:

  • Choose a lightweight backpack – If the backpack is too heavy or is worn incorrectly it might cause problems for children and teenagers like injured muscles and joints and sometimes leading  into severe back, neck, and shoulder pain, as well as posture problems. Loaded backpacks should weigh 10% or less of the child’s total body weight.
  • Schedule back-to-school physicals – Your well-child orthopedic visit is an important part of your child’s path to overall orthopedic health.
  • Stay safe during sports activities – Be sure to perform warm-up stretches, don’t forget to cool down stretches and stay hydrated throughout the day.
