Weak leg after final cast...

[Guest guest]

My son's final cast is coming off Friday. He had the

tenotomy 3 weeks ago and had 5 casts prior to that by

Dr. Ponseti. Therefore, it has been almost 2 months

since he has been cast free. He is 11 months old and

I can tell his left leg (the clubfoot) has lost a lot

of muscle even in the thigh. Any suggestions on

things to do the rebuild the muscles? Also do you let

them walk and use that foot and leg like normal,

eventhough he had his tenotomy only 3 weeks ago?

Thanks,

& Colin 6-23-01 (Left Clubfoot)
