0:01:03 > 0:01:05Hello! I'm Dr Ranj.
0:01:05 > 0:01:08Welcome to our very special hospital just for children.
0:01:08 > 0:01:10Come on, I'll show you around.

0:01:21 > 0:01:26And they're specially trained to care for children just like you.
0:01:29 > 0:01:33You may come here because you're not feeling well.
0:01:33 > 0:01:36Or you need to have a test.
0:01:36 > 0:01:37Or an operation.
0:01:39 > 0:01:41- Hello!- Hello, Dr Ranj.
0:01:44 > 0:01:48But don't worry, whatever you're here for, there will be someone
0:01:48 > 0:01:53like me to check that you're healthy or to help you get well soon.
0:01:54 > 0:01:56This is my floor. I'd better get to work.
0:02:00 > 0:02:02Hello! I'm in the orthotics apartment.
0:02:02 > 0:02:04This is where we see children
0:02:04 > 0:02:08who have problems with their feet, limbs or spine.
0:02:08 > 0:02:10I've got a patient coming to see me today.
0:02:10 > 0:02:12I wonder who it will be.
0:02:12 > 0:02:15Who's come to visit me? Who will it be?
0:02:15 > 0:02:19Can you guess which friend it is? Let's see.
0:02:21 > 0:02:25I know who that is! It's Petal.
0:02:25 > 0:02:30# With buttons and bangles that jangle as I hop
0:02:30 > 0:02:34# When I'm having so much fun It's hard for me to stop
0:02:34 > 0:02:38# Twirling, twisting When I'm singing any song I choose
0:02:38 > 0:02:42# Twirling, twisting, skating Skipping in my dancing shoes
0:02:42 > 0:02:46# Twirling, twisting When I'm singing any song I choose
0:02:46 > 0:02:50# Twirling, twisting, skating Skipping in my dancing shoes
0:02:50 > 0:02:54# Twirling, twisting, skating Skipping in my dancing shoes. #
0:02:54 > 0:02:57Woo!
0:02:57 > 0:02:59Hello, Petal, come and sit down.
0:02:59 > 0:03:02Hello, Dr Ranj.
0:03:02 > 0:03:03Ta-da-da!
0:03:03 > 0:03:05Nice moves, Petal.
0:03:05 > 0:03:08Oh, thanks, I made them up myself.
0:03:08 > 0:03:10Oh, and I like your new shoes too.
0:03:10 > 0:03:12Oh, so do I.
0:03:12 > 0:03:15My old ones wore out so quickly.
0:03:15 > 0:03:19I hope these don't, cos they're my favourite shoes ever.
0:03:19 > 0:03:21They're just the best.
0:03:21 > 0:03:24Do you know why you've come to see me today, Petal?
0:03:24 > 0:03:27My feet hurt sometimes, Dr Ranj.
0:03:27 > 0:03:30I hope there's nothing wrong with them.
0:03:30 > 0:03:33Do your feet hurt when you're wearing other shoes
0:03:33 > 0:03:35or if you walk in bare feet?
0:03:35 > 0:03:38Yes, and sometimes my feet hurt when I dance,
0:03:38 > 0:03:40but I never want to stop dancing.
0:03:40 > 0:03:43Hee-hee-hee. Oh! Ow.
0:03:43 > 0:03:47I think the problem might be your feet, Petal, not your new shoes.
0:03:47 > 0:03:50- Shall we have a look? - Oh, do I have to take off
0:03:50 > 0:03:53my new shoes, Dr Ranj?
0:03:53 > 0:03:56Yes, please. But don't worry, I'll look after them.
0:03:56 > 0:04:00My feet are so ticklish, Dr Ranj. No tickling!
0:04:00 > 0:04:05Don't worry, Petal, I just need to have a good look at your feet.
0:04:05 > 0:04:06It tickles!
0:04:06 > 0:04:10Almost done. Can you stand up for me as well?
0:04:10 > 0:04:12Are my feet OK, Dr Ranj?
0:04:12 > 0:04:16- I think I know what the problem is, Petal.- Really?
0:04:16 > 0:04:19You have something we call flat feet.
0:04:19 > 0:04:22- Flat feet?- That's it.
0:04:22 > 0:04:25Huh, my lovely feet, flattened.
0:04:25 > 0:04:27- How did that happen?- Ha-ha!
0:04:27 > 0:04:31Don't worry, Petal, no-one's flattened your feet.
0:04:31 > 0:04:35Flat feet just means that the bottoms of your feet are flat.
0:04:35 > 0:04:37Flat bottoms?
0:04:37 > 0:04:41When you put your feet down, the whole of the bottom of your foot,
0:04:41 > 0:04:45not just part of it, presses flat on the ground.
0:04:45 > 0:04:47Don't everyone's feet do that?
0:04:47 > 0:04:51No, most people's feet don't press flat on the ground.
0:04:55 > 0:04:57Oh, but they don't float in the air.
0:04:57 > 0:05:00I know, but usually, as feet grow,
0:05:00 > 0:05:04the bottom of the foot becomes raised up a little in the middle.
0:05:04 > 0:05:08- That's called an arch. - My friend's called Archie.
0:05:08 > 0:05:13He so makes me laugh. Why don't my feet have an Archie?
0:05:13 > 0:05:15Have I got funny feet?
0:05:15 > 0:05:19No, Petal, lots of people have flat feet for different reasons.
0:05:19 > 0:05:22You might have flat feet just because your parents do.
0:05:22 > 0:05:25But I can still do lots of things, Dr Ranj.
0:05:25 > 0:05:28I can walk, I can run, and dancing.
0:05:28 > 0:05:30Oh, I love dancing!
0:05:30 > 0:05:31Ta-da-da-da!
0:05:31 > 0:05:33I know, Petal.
0:05:33 > 0:05:35I'll never, ever stop dancing, Dr Ranj.
0:05:35 > 0:05:37That's great, Petal,
0:05:37 > 0:05:41but your flat feet might be what's making your feet hurt.
0:05:41 > 0:05:42But how?
0:05:42 > 0:05:46Your flat feet make your feet roll inwards when you walk along.
0:05:46 > 0:05:50- Oh.- Some people with flat feet don't have any problems,
0:05:50 > 0:05:55others might have painful feet, like you, or painful ankles.
0:05:55 > 0:05:56Uncles?
0:05:56 > 0:05:59Ankles. That's where the bones in your feet
0:05:59 > 0:06:01meet the bones in your leg.
0:06:01 > 0:06:04There are lots of bones inside our bodies.
0:06:04 > 0:06:06Bones are hard and very strong.
0:06:06 > 0:06:09They fit together to make your skeleton.
0:06:09 > 0:06:12Skeleton? Ooh, spooky!
0:06:12 > 0:06:15Your skeleton isn't spooky or scary, Petal,
0:06:15 > 0:06:19it's very important, because it holds your body together.
0:06:19 > 0:06:22- Without it, you'd be a floppy heap on the floor.- Ha-ha!
0:06:22 > 0:06:27Your bones and muscles work together like a very clever machine.
0:06:27 > 0:06:30I'm a dancing machine.
0:06:30 > 0:06:32But when you dance or walk,
0:06:32 > 0:06:35sometimes your muscles are too stretchy,
0:06:35 > 0:06:38and that can make your feet flat and ache.
0:06:38 > 0:06:40Will I always have flat feet, Dr Ranj?
0:06:40 > 0:06:44- Your feet might change as you grow. - Oh, good.
0:06:44 > 0:06:47And there's something we can give you now
0:06:47 > 0:06:50- to help stop your feet hurting. - Flat shoes?
0:06:50 > 0:06:55No, but we can give you some insoles which fit inside your shoes.
0:06:55 > 0:06:57Insoles?
0:06:57 > 0:07:01Insoles are like a thin cushion for your feet.
0:07:01 > 0:07:05They slide inside your shoes and help give your foot back its arch.
0:07:05 > 0:07:07- Great. - And they'll definitely help
0:07:07 > 0:07:10support your feet and stop them rolling inwards.
0:07:10 > 0:07:13I hope they don't spoil my new shoes, Dr Ranj.
0:07:13 > 0:07:16That would be so not good.
0:07:16 > 0:07:18- They won't, Petal.- Fantastic!
0:07:18 > 0:07:20You're the best, Dr Ranj.
0:07:20 > 0:07:23We can put your shoes and socks back on now, Petal.
0:07:23 > 0:07:27OK. Are you going to do anything else to my feet, Dr Ranj?
0:07:27 > 0:07:29Not today, Petal.
0:07:29 > 0:07:30Oh, that's good.
0:07:30 > 0:07:35- Why, are they hurting now? - No, I just want to dance!
0:07:35 > 0:07:37Come back and see me in a few weeks' time
0:07:37 > 0:07:42when you've got your new insoles and we'll see how your feet feel then.
0:07:42 > 0:07:45And then I'll dance and dance and dance!
0:07:49 > 0:07:54# You walk and you skate And you dance and run
0:07:54 > 0:07:58# But afterwards It doesn't feel like fun
0:07:58 > 0:08:00- # No! - You can't play any more
0:08:00 > 0:08:03# Cos your feet are feeling sore
0:08:03 > 0:08:06# You wonder if your dancing days are done
0:08:06 > 0:08:12# We're going to chase away Those flat feet blues
0:08:12 > 0:08:16# Chase away those flat feet blues
0:08:16 > 0:08:18# The doctor's got good news
0:08:18 > 0:08:20# A little cushion in your shoes
0:08:20 > 0:08:25# Is going to chase away Those flat feet blues
0:08:25 > 0:08:29# Somewhere between your ankle And your toe
0:08:29 > 0:08:33# There's an achy, hurting feeling That just won't go
0:08:33 > 0:08:35- # You cry out - Ouch and ooh!
0:08:35 > 0:08:38# But the problem's not your shoe
0:08:38 > 0:08:42# It's right there in your feet So now you know
0:08:42 > 0:08:46# We're going to chase away Those flat feet blues
0:08:46 > 0:08:51# Chase away those flat feet blues
0:08:51 > 0:08:53# The doctor's got good news
0:08:53 > 0:08:55# A little cushion in your shoes
0:08:55 > 0:09:00# Is going to chase away Those flat feet blues. #
0:09:01 > 0:09:02Da-da-da-da.
0:09:02 > 0:09:05- Hello, Dr Ranj. - Hello, Petal.
0:09:05 > 0:09:08Has it been a few weeks since you last came to see me already?
0:09:08 > 0:09:13Yes, and I'm wearing my new insoles inside my new shoes. Ta-da!
0:09:13 > 0:09:16Lovely. And how do the insoles feel?
0:09:16 > 0:09:19Well, they felt a bit funny at first, Dr Ranj,
0:09:19 > 0:09:21but I've so got used to them now.
0:09:21 > 0:09:23Dee-dee-dee-dee!
0:09:23 > 0:09:25Very good. And do your feet still hurt, Petal?
0:09:25 > 0:09:28Well, sometimes, but not as much. Watch.
0:09:31 > 0:09:34It might take a little longer for your feet
0:09:34 > 0:09:36to get used to the insoles, Petal.
0:09:36 > 0:09:39And you'll need to see a physiotherapist.
0:09:39 > 0:09:41I've never seen one of those.
0:09:41 > 0:09:45A physiotherapist is someone who is specially trained to help
0:09:45 > 0:09:49- get your bones and muscles working properly again.- Oh.
0:09:49 > 0:09:52- They'll just give you some exercises to do.- Exercises?
0:09:52 > 0:09:56Oh, I know lots of exercises, like standing on one leg...
0:09:58 > 0:10:02..and then I stretch up and up and... Oh! ..up.
0:10:04 > 0:10:05Well done, Petal.
0:10:05 > 0:10:09Gentle exercises will help the bones and muscles in your feet
0:10:09 > 0:10:11- get stronger.- Great!
0:10:11 > 0:10:14I think you deserve a sticker for coming to see me today.
0:10:14 > 0:10:16Oh... There.
0:10:17 > 0:10:20- Thanks, Dr Ranj.- Bye, Petal.- Bye!
0:10:21 > 0:10:25It's time for me and everyone at the children's hospital
0:10:25 > 0:10:28to say goodbye. Thanks for coming to see us.
0:10:28 > 0:10:29See you next time.
0:10:29 > 0:10:33But until then, be happy, be healthy and get well soon.
0:10:52 > 0:10:55If you're not feeling well, it's always best to go
0:10:55 > 0:10:58and see your own doctor. And get well soon!
