Re: atypical crease question

[Guest guest]

Dr. Pirani just showed me on Tuesday how Hayden's crease is disappearing - it's

pretty amazing (and this is just from the casting - I'll be curious to see the

difference once his tenotomy casts come off!)

I spoke with Dr. Ponseti a week ago regarding my son's atypical club

feet. He confirmed they were atypical and said our MD should be

pushing up on the bottom of the foot with both thumbs. I guess my

question for the group is, how will I know when the foot is corrected?

In atypical does the crease eventually go away? Without abandoning

our MD and heading to Iowa, does anyone have any advice?

busy...??? I truly am the typo queen... Not to worry, Mavis Beacon is about to

become my friend. HA! What I meant was his feet were to CHUBBY, not busy, to

tell that he had much of a lateral crease. If you saw the x-rays I wouldn't

worry too much, particularly since the 's will continue the correction.

Transverse. We did have X-rays done and they said the foot was

corrected, but the crease is still present. So hard to tell with a

little infant foot. Our MD doesn't seem concerned, but just don't

want him missing something.
