Guest guest Posted February 22, 2006 Report Share Posted February 22, 2006 My Name is Amber my son is 11 weeks old and has bilateral clubfeet. He has been in cast for the last 6 weeks now. 's casts are changed out every 2 weeks. We are having soem problems though. For one with this last set of casts he was able to wiggle out of his right cast. From the start i have not like the way they did things but with the insurance that we have its the only option that i have right now. The second problem that has now come along is that the crease in the bad of his foot above the heal of the foot has been rubbed raw and has been bleeding. i know before i let them if think about doing surgery on my baby boy later on down the road other than the nipping of the tendon. that he will go some where else and get a second option. I have learn alot by reading and lurking for alittle while. I didnt find out till nathan was born that he had clubfeet. Where i take him its a club foot clinic the doctors dont do any of the casting the interns do. We have only seen the Dr Warrener when he was first evaluted. i dont like the way they do things at all. When u go up there u better not have to be anywhere in the next 2 to 4 hours because that is how long we are normally up there. We live in Pope, MS and travel up to Memphis,TN to LCH (Labonor Children Hospital). I was wondering if there was anyone else around this area that goes up there or just anyone close by? You all have help alot with all i have read on here and also answered alot of questions that i had from the beginning. Thanks Amber Mommy to Born 12/6/05 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
