help with DBB

My foster son has clubfeet on both. This is his second time he been

in the DBB. The first time was around 4 months old, he started the

cast when he was around 1 month old, in August started the casting

process. Had surgery in October wore cast for 3 more weeks. Got the

DBB, wouldn't leave them on, sore on one of his foot. I call

orthotics, they made me apportment, His PT told me to keep them off

until I saw him. Went to the app. he said his left foot has

slipped, he call the Dr. I went to the orthopedic, they started the

cast back, he had the cast on until Jan 18, went back to othotics,

said the right foot is a little stiff. Well I haven't had much

sleep, when he gets in the DBB he don't eat much he loses weight,

gets sick. I called the Dr. Yesterday they wasn't much help, I

called twice. They told me to call the othotic. So I did he told me

he should be getting use to then by now, it's been a week. Back of

his heels are red. He just screams when he has them on, don't get

no sleep. It's making me sick, I fill yucky. I need any adivise

anyone can give me. My baby had a hard life be I got him. He been

in are house since August 19. He was under weight when we got him,

he been gaining until he gets in the DBB. Can anyone tell me about
