Guest guest Posted October 29, 2004 Report Share Posted October 29, 2004 Hello everyone, I am new to this group so let me introduce myself! I am Sofia and me and my family live in Lindome, Sweden. June 9 2004, I gave birth to my second son s, who had his right foot clubfoot. On his fourth day of living he got his firts plaster cast, and he was recasted once a week for five weeks. Before the last casting our Ponsetti teached doctor decided that no tenotomy was needed in his case. July 22 he got his Denis Browne shoes, and except for the first 24 hours when he was crying badly for not being able to move his healthy leg how he wanted, everything has been going really smoothly for three months time now. However, the shoes and his feet smell. I presume it is heavy sweating. I clean his feet with mild soap and water every morning and evening, dry them thorourly and put on clean socks. Occasionally I powder them with potatoe flower (is that the correct english word for it?) especially between the toes. Does anyone have tips on how to keep his feet fresh? Is it possible to clean the shoes when you only got one DBB free hour a day? Another thing - he is chewing on the bar and soles of the shoes and I am afraid that he one day will hurt himself by getting the bar in his forehead. Does anyone have experience on that and what is the best to put on the bar to protect him? Looking forward to hear from you! Sofia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
