Re: Re: atypical crease question

[Guest guest]

Gabe's lateral crease went away.. but he never had much of one. His feet were

just to busy to tell. He still has some evidence of a transverse crease on both

feet (just faint lines). If you have any doubts; have x-rays done to be sure.

Also, Poseti didn't correct the cavus MUCH by casting -- most of the correction

came from full time wear inthe shoes. The middle strap pulls down the

arch more than the casting does.
