Toe walking is common in children 3 years old and younger. However, for children 5 years old and older, walking on tiptoes is not normal and could be associated with a neurological immaturity or medical condition.
Cameron began walking on his tippy toes starting at about two years old. Cameron's mom took him to different pediatricians trying to figure out if Cameron's toe walking was a symptom of something more serious, and if so, what can they do about it?
She remembers one pediatrician commenting that if Cameron didn't grow out of it they may have to perform surgery on his Achilles ankle.
