Hi Everyone,

My name is and I have a 3 1/2 year old boy who has a right club

foot. He was born six weeks early. He had casting at 2 days old, went

through 2 tentonomies, DBB and at 3 wouldn't tolerate them anymore. He

is very active. Now we might be having a relapse. has been

tripping and falling a lot so I brought it up to our Dr. at our last

appointment. He looked at his foot and said it could be turning in a

little. Worst case senerio is that he will have a tendon transfer and

be in a full leg cast for six weeks. We are going back in Oct. to have

x-rays and also they will put pads on the bottom of his feet to see

how his foot lands.The Dr also said that all of this could be a growth

spurt. Anyone else with an older child gone through this?

Oh, we live in Springfield, MA and go to Shriner's hospital to see Dr.

Mack.

thanks

and (rt club foot, Ponseti method)
