Guest guest Posted February 14, 2005 Report Share Posted February 14, 2005 I e-mailed Dr. Ponseti to ask him about length of time in the dbb. I've posted my question to him followed by his answer. Dear Mrs. : Since your son is already 15 months old and wants to walk, I think if he wears the DBB for 2 1/2 months 23/7 that will be sufficient. You can then remove the brace 6-8 hours a day without compromising the correction Dr. Mack has obtained. Feel free to tell Dr. Mack about this and tell him you have consulted me. I.V.
