Question

does anyones baby have clubfoot? how do they fix it?

Answer 1

she is correct most babies have some sort of curve in their feet. If it is bad enough that it needs to be corrected, do as i recomened on your other question and have a specialist let you know how exactly it needs to be corrected like yo usaid the poinseti method is a good one but there are other ways as well.... good luck with your baby

Answer 2

My daughter had club foot and the doctor said for me to correct it as soon as possible. She was just starting to walk at 9 months and falling over the foot all the time.
I took her to a specialist and he sized her feet and we got special shoes for her, she wore them at night when she slept. It had a brace in between the two pairs of shoes { she slept on her back }.
We did this for about 3 months. Then weaned her off of them slowly, she now walks correctly. He son was born with Club-foot and she did nothing about it. When he was 5 years old he had to have surgery which corrected it a little. In a period of 6 years and a lot more surgeries he is 28 now and it is starting to cause trouble again.
I would suggest the special shoes. Talk to your doctor about it..

Answer 3

My son was born with a sever case of bilateral clubfeet, He had to be casted and then had surgery to release his heal cord. Most of the time if it's not a sever case you can just get casting done but I advise you to see a doctor that uses the ponseti method. If you wish to know more just email me. Like i said my son was born with this but he had a sever case and I didn't know about the ponseti method.
[e-mail] or just look up ponseti method for clubfeet on google.com.
Best of luck to you and the baby..

Answer 4

most babies have strange feet and legs until about the 1st year of life. In most cases it doesnt need correcting.
