Guest guest Posted February 25, 2006 Report Share Posted February 25, 2006 Halley- My son has been at 55 degrees since August-our doctor prescribed it and Dr P after emailing him, concurred. Our son is considered " loose ligamented " and they both believe the lesser reduction will help tighten up his ligaments. When he is free standing-his feet tend to turn to 90 degrees-almost perfect second position if he was a ballerina. It did scare me too to reduce his shoes but I trust my doc and Dr P. I do watch his feet to see if they are regressing but so far, no change. We can still rotate his feet to 70 degrees(or further) with no problems!
