helmet

[Guest guest]

Hi,

I have not posted in a while. We were trying repo with our son

but have decided to go with a helmet since we didn't see any

improvement. I have a question. Has anyone had a 3-D STARscan done?

That is what my son is having on Thursday and I was wondering what to

expect. They say it replaces the casting process. He will get the

helmet 2 weeks after that and I am sure you will be hearing from me a

lot more!!

Has it been adjusted in that month's time? It sounds like it might be getting

too small and causing welts on his scalp and/or skull. Have you asked your ortho

about it? I would call ASAP and get in for an adjustment. What you are

describing is not normal.
