Guest guest Posted August 4, 2004 Report Share Posted August 4, 2004 My wife delivered a Baby Boy last week who's born with Billateral Talipes. We are based in Mumbai. Having consulted with a few doctors, who assured me that there is nothing to get worried about and the fact that this is 100% curable, i thought it will be better off to find some more information on the condition & related treatments on the internet. I came across the Ponseti method. Though I am in no position (with my limited knowledge) to decide whats the best treatment for the baby. At the moment doctors have suggested for some foot exercise to be performed 200-250 times a day for next 1.5 months and then they propose to put a casting / plaster (5 of them to be changed every 2 weeks). This according to the doctors would cure the disorder / condition upto 90% and if required a surgery. I would appreciate your advice & assistance on the same.
