Hi and welcome to the group! Just wondering why your daughter is so

limited in PE. How old is she? What kind of treatment did she

receive as a baby? Can you give us some more details?

My son is 4, was treated with the Ponseti method and as yet has no

limitations at all. His gait looks like he is slightly pigeon toed

as he has femoral torsion (that will go away apparently) and his

calves are very skinny. Other than these minor appearance issues,

he is able to keep up with or outrun his peers with no trouble and

has no trouble with foot function.

I can understand if the feet were not corrected well that load bearing activity

would cause some pain, such as running and jumping, but perhaps non-weight

bearing exercise would help - swimming, bike riding....
