Greetings L-Serve users,
Our docs are really hooked on the Ponseti method for non-operatively treating clubfeet. This leads to the Ponseti Bar for the final regimen of the treatment. Problem is, we are running into many of the infants pulling out of their shoes, or even getting heel blisters. We are using the Markell #1644 shoes, counseling and instructing the parents and still having problems. Often times we are adding an inverted P-Cell or Plastazote crescent over the heel, on top of the one Markell has built-in, with little success. Any ideas out there?
Thanks in advance,
Jim Athearn, CO
