I’m a pediatric orthotist - he needs toe walking AFOs. I know that sounds scary but it can turn from “he likes to walk on his toes” to “he can’t put his heels on the ground” faster than you think. Especially as he goes through growth spurts.

It’s sensory. He’s on the spectrum.

Hi! I did this as a kid. I don't have autism, I don't need permanent leg and ankle splints, or anything that people are saying. Don't assume there's something wrong with him just because he does this. I do however, have monster calves.

Respectfully, I am a special educator. Have you gotten him tested for autism? This is a pretty solid indicator

cowboy boots have helped some toe-walking kiddos because the structure doesn't allow for toe walking, worth a shot!

He will be in leg and ankle splints permanently if you don’t fix that now.

have you tried weighted ankle bands? might give him the sensory he needs down there. must be so weird for your brain to not know where your feet are otherwise unless they have a sensation lol hope you find whatever works for him! ❤️

Yeah so you need to stop him. Seriously this isn’t cute, speaking from experience it’s harmful, his Achilles tendons will be short. Short enough to cause issues, injury or even need surgery. Please.

Ill tell you RIGHT NOW- I use to do the same thing as a kid, and I was forced to wear ankle splits- it's worth it, they suck but you'll be so grateful

Meg Hurring :
Paediatric OT here!! He’s seeking proprioception to help keep himself regulated as it’s making his body feel good by providing deeper pressure to his joints and muscles. Try heavy work activities such as animal walks, bear, crab, frog jumps, obstacle courses, jumping on trampoline, feet massages, ball kicks/pushes, getting him to push on cushions or your hands, pillow crashing/squishes 😊 Hope this helps!
