Re: Foot are in overcorrected position

[Guest guest]

Hi Ramesh!

To be honest, your question made me realize that I am not sure when Zoe's

foot stopped being overcorrected exactly, but it was definitely by 3 years

old. Probably before. Once we started wearing the brace at only nap and

night time, it didn't take long.

Until recently, when she ran, her foot would flare out to the side. Since we

have stopped wearing the brace for a few months, her foot is no longer

turning out when she runs. Dr. Herzenberg said that it was turning out to

the side because her muscles were weaker.

Hope this helps!

Method. ?
