A. meet pediatrician and orthopaedic Dr toe walking is many times seen in children after completion of 1 year of age. sometimes it is intermittent as well as sometimes it is continuous. usually this habit goes away with increasing age of the child usually by 2 years of age. it is advisable that in between whenever you meet your pediatrician you can discuss this problem as well as take a video when the child is toe walking and share it with your pediatrician who will tell you if any intervention is required or not.
