Club foot

So I had club foot when I was a baby. The truly wonderful Dr. Diaz was the one that fixed it, using the Ponseti Method. One of the side-effects of club foot is pain in the Achilles' tendon. Yesterday I was having some pain and I got curious as to how the Ponseti Method works. I looked it up and apparently now it only takes an average of six to eight weeks for the foot to be fixed. I told my parents about this and my mom was absolutely shocked. This was because I had to go through all the casts until I was two years old. I even have memories of my final cast. I have to admit that I'm a bit jealous over this but I'm also glad that now babies born with club foot can have it fixed so much faster than before. On the bright side my doctor has told me that I will never develop arthritis related to my club foot. So in conclusion, the Ponseti Method now takes much less time to complete than it did when I was a baby, and I'm happy about that

The Ponseti Method for Clubfoot begins with the manipulation of the foot. This is done by stretching the calf muscles, rotating the foot into a better position, and repositioning the heel bone. The foot is then placed in a cast, which is changed every week. Each successive cast is more corrective than the last, gradually stretching the calf muscles and pushing the foot into a normal position. This process may take up to six weeks.

Ponseti Method for Clubfoot

Treatment should be started in the first week or two of life in order to take advantage of the favorable elasticity of the tissues forming the ligaments, joint capsules and tendons. With our treatment these structures are stretched with weekly, gentle manipulations. A plaster cast is applied after each weekly stretching session to retain the degree of correction obtained and to help soften the ligaments. Thereby, the displaced bones are gradually brought into the correct alignment.

These babies require special treatment and may need surgical correction. The results are better, however, if bone and joint surgery can be avoided altogether. Clubfoot  Surgery in the clubfoot is invariably followed by scarring, stiffness and muscle weakness that becomes more severe and disabling after adolescence.
