Club Foot (Talipes Equinovarus) – Clubbed Feet Treatment
Club foot, otherwise known as talipes equinovarus, is a congenital deformity of the foot that causes it to turn inward and downward. This condition can affect one or both feet, resulting in clubbed feet, in which the heel of the foot faces inward and the toes point outward. Treatment for clubfoot generally requires a combination of physical therapy and casts to stretch the muscles and tendons in order to correct the positioning of the foot. Surgery may also be necessary and is usually done after non-surgical treatment if clubfoot still needs to be corrected further. In most cases, clubfoot can be corrected with a high success rate if treated correctly early on.
