Guest guest Posted January 31, 2010 Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 It's right in the middle of her forehead, too! Why is the helmet doing this? She had a spot at the back of her head and the orthotist made some adjustments on Friday and then today when we took the helmet off she had a BIG welt on her forehead. And there was a bunch of gooey yellow disharge in her helmet. It's been 4 hours and the spot on her head still looks the same. I'm not putting it back on until I get this fixed, but what could it be from? I don't want this to leave any permanent mark on her forehead--that's what I'm really worried about! I'm starting to wonder if the helmet is doing more harm than good and just about to give up completely. Our orthotist is out of town for the week so I'm going to try and get her to see someone else tommorrow, but I'm wondering if they (our normal orthotist of the other one at the office) know what they're doing. She's only had the helmet for less than 2 weeks and has already had this happen twice. Red spots seem normal, but welts and discharge? That isn't normal, is it?
