silicone pads for mitchells

[Guest guest]

We recieved our pads for the mitchell shoes today. Was wondering if anyone that

is using them can tell me if you put the pads under the socks or above the

socks? The did tell me that the go under the shoe, so I am guessing ontop of

the socks. Also the have a fabric on one side, does it matter what way we put

the fabric? The skin that was purple has started to peel, so we got the pads

just in time. Maybe it won't all peel off.

Thanks

The skin will probably still peel off. But that's Ok, just put Neosporin on it

and maybe a Telfa non-stick pad to protect it. I have put the pad both under and

on top of the sock. I have to say that on top of the sock allows for some

breathing of the area with the fabric side up twards the tongue. We have been

using them for 2 weeks now or so, and they seem to be helping. I have tried

several different ways and pads, and these seem to be the best.

Christee,

Thank you, got the shoes on and will see how it goes for a week or so. Then

will let and Dr. Ponseti know how it goes. Did use the Telfa pads that is

what we did before. Trying to keep the kids awake late so they are not awake

early. Don't think it will work.

Thanks for all the help. Are your little ones sores healing? Hopefully it

won't be much longer. Karters usually take about 2 weeks or so to heal. We

will see this time.

Christee,

You could still see where Karter's sores where when this started again. Those

sores where from Sept.! So yes it will take awhile for the scars to lighten.

Was wondering if the scar or scar tissue had something to do with this new sore.

Glad that Lilee is doing better. Hopefully it will stay that way.
