Toe walking beyond the age of 2 years can be a matter of concern. She should be seen by a Pediatrician.

Most if the children who walk on their toes grow out of it by 5 years of age (Habitual toe walkers).

However, its important to rule out any underlying cause such as cerebral palsy if the child is older than 2 years of age . Please see a qualified Paediatrician for thorough clinical assessment

Is there any kind of surgery required in such cases.
Like muscles are bit shorter and neet to stretch through surgery??????
