Guest guest Posted December 6, 2004 Report Share Posted December 6, 2004 on his ankle area or on the soles? Wrinkles or actual creases? If it's wrinkles on the ankle and even lower on the outside of the foot that's extra skin from when the foot was uncorrected. It should tighten up over time. Creases on the soles are a different story and you might want to take a pic and send to the pics list for other parents to look at. It might be normal, but a lateral crease in the forefoot often means atypical (goes across the foot, creases up and down from toes to heel are somewhat normal IIRC).

Guest guest Posted December 6, 2004 Report Share Posted December 6, 2004 If you mean creases in the skin this is because the foot was turned in and the skin stretched accordingly. Now that they are turned to a " normal " angle the extra skin is creasing. From what I have read from other parents it will go away as they get older.

Guest guest Posted December 6, 2004 Report Share Posted December 6, 2004 When my daughter finished her casting with Dr. Ponseti she had a very defined crease on the outside of her foot (unilateral) that had not been there at birth. She's three now and no sign of a crease at all, just a perfectly straight little foot. I wouldn't worry too much, but keep an eye on it. I think with time you'll notice it disappearing. HTH, Jen & Livie (10-18-01 severe left clubfoot) questions about creases My son has very defined creases on the outsides of his feet.Could this be because they are turned out and when he has his hours reduced they can relax and maybe this will go away.he's 4 1\2 months 23\7.Has this happened to anyone else?Does this sound like there's a problem or that their not being corrected properly?I haven't had any problems with the shoes there tied tighly they don't slip no blisters or red marks............thank god........just these creases Thank You in advance Jen and Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 6, 2004 Report Share Posted December 6, 2004 Jen, That sounds like what Livie had. I just sent some photos to the clubfoot pics group for you of her foot.
