What does a Pediatric Orthopaedic Surgeon do?
Pediatric orthopaedic surgeons specialize in diagnosing and treating musculoskeletal and chronic neurological disorders in children. This includes correcting problems with muscles, tendons, ligaments, bones, joints, and other connective tissues, and doing so while these body parts are still growing and have not yet fully developed.
How can you get your children involved in the true meaning of Thanksgiving? Here are some fun ideas!
* Have them start a collection of canned goods for your local food shelter
* Have them make fall art decorations for a memorable table
* Include them when creating the menu & then shop together for the ingredients
* Put them in charge of greeting guests and showing them were the snacks & drink are
* Make it a game when cleaning dishes off the table and putting away leftovers
Happy Thanksgiving. Here’s hoping that whatever you do today brings you delight from morning until night. May the holiday bring you nothing but wonderful things in abundance.
You and your children may be going skiing this winter so be sure to prepare properly by maintaining your fitness, warming up prior to participating, hydrating and learning the safety rules for the ski lift.

How do you know if your child should see a Pediatric Orthopaedic Surgeon?
Common problems that pediatric orthopaedic surgeons can help with include limping or trouble walking, limb and spine anomalies (such as club foot, scoliosis, limb length differences, and congenital hand and foot disorders), gait abnormalities, broken and fractured bones, and bone or joint infections and tumors. More complicated problems like developmental delay and skeletal dysplasias typically require the attention of a broader pool of medical and surgical expertise.
Pediatric medicine has a well-known motto; “Children are not just small adults.” Their anatomies are different from those of adults. They’re still growing and developing, so their responses to treatments for injuries, disorders, and diseases are very different. They also can’t always effectively communicate what’s wrong and where it hurts. That’s why in order to obtain the best long-term prognosis and outcome, they need pediatric-specific diagnoses, therapies, and treatment techniques.
We’re sharing more on keeping safe while skiing with your family.
* Wear layers of clothing that are water- and wind-resistant
* Be sure your boots and bindings have been set & adjusted for you
* Wear protective gear such as googles and a helmet

With the December holidays comes the decorating and with the decorating there’s a possibility of accidents. To keep you loved ones safe this season think about:
* Avoiding electrical fires by purchasing lights from reputable retailers and those that are nationally approved
* Inspect your lights for broken sockets and frayed wiring
* Do not overload your outlets
* Use a ladder, not your furniture or counter tops
* Use battery-operated candles
* If you have a Christmas tree be sure to keep it properly hydrated
* Have live plants like mistletoe, poinsettias or holly berries, keep them away from children and pets
The December holidays are upon us and you may be thinking about how to keep you and your family safe during a pandemic. So, here are some suggestions:
First check the COVID-19 positivity rates in your area and what your local leaders are advising. This will help you to determine the cap on the amount of those that can gather. Ask all those you’re gathering with if they have been following preventative measures, maintain 6-feet distance and avoid sharing food and drink and consider opening a window for better circulation of air.
Winston Pediatrics in Milford is committed to keeping your children healthy and safe during this global pandemic.

Your home should be the safest place for your children but we all know that accidents happen. And a lot of these accidents happen in the bathroom and kitchen. Here are some guidelines from Children's Hospital Los Angeles to follow.
Here are some tips to keep your kitchen child-proofed:
• Keep handles of pots and pans toward the back of the stove.
• Use safety locks to secure oven doors and knobs.
• All sharp objects should be stored safely out of reach.
• Keep hot foods and liquids away from the edges of counters and tables; they should be out of reach.
• Use cabinet and refrigerator locks.
• All cleaning products should be stored in locked cabinets.
• Keep a fire extinguisher in room adjacent to the kitchen.
Similar tips are shared for the bathroom:
• Medicine and household products should be stored in locked cabinets.
• Use safety treads or a non-skid mat in the bathtub to prevent falls.
• Install locks on toilet lid.
• Install doorknob locks to prevent children from coming in unsupervised.
