Common Limb Deformities in Children (S3 Ep. 29)
Thursday Jul 22, 2021

"What's wrong with your legs?' 'Nothin' at all, thank you. My legs are just fine and dandy.'" This episode takes a line from Forrest Gump and RUNS with it. It's important for providers to know normal MSK development from an intrauterine fetus to the running child so that you can give parents reassurance for normal, expected defects while referring true deformities.
