Does
your son or daughter have clubfoot? Do you want to know how to
correct this problem?
Clubfoot(talipes
equinovarus) is a fairly common birth defect occurring in 1 out
of 1000 births. A foot affected by clubfoot is inverted so that the
toes point in and down. The foot twists so that the top of the foot
is where the bottom of the foot would normally be. The foot is
usually smaller than a normal foot, and the calf-region can be
affected as well so that the two legs are not the same length. Were
the child to grow up with clubfoot, he or she would appear to be
"walking" on his or her ankles.
