We had that problem after an adjustment too. I left the band off all

day, and his forehead was still red. Upon closer examination, it

looked more like irritation from the moisture buildup (he had only

been in it a week and the weather was warm). We could feel a change

in the skin texture when we rubbed across his forehead. A little

cortaid and he was better then next day.

It's hard to believe that they couldn't get it right in 2

adjustments, so I'm just offering an alternative theory.

Why don't you ask him if he can add some moleskin? Is this on a

suppose to be pressure point?

Ack! How frustrating! Hmm, I wondering along the same lines as .

Could it be a sensitivity issue? Could you ask your ortho specifically about

putting some moleskin in that spot to cut down on the contact with the skin?
