Think you don't have to if you start early. Might also be how severe it is. I was born with club feet and never had a surgery for it. And that was in the 90s, so.

Oh, and by the way, the saw can’t cut him. They are specifically designed so they can’t cut human skin. Only material. They just vibrate back-and-forth really fast and it doesn’t cut your skin because your skin moves with it.

Last time the person cut the baby and that is what she's talking about. My own baby was born with clubfoot and when we did her casting, that never happened to us so I was so sad when I saw that happened to her baby, however small the cuts were, it should never had happened.

She required 2 surgeries, outpatient thank goodness but they got her all straightened out and now she’s a gorgeous 20 year old woman with no problems whatsoever. This will pass and he looks 100 times better already.

I'm glad his feet are corrected now. After this he'll go through the vracing stage till 4 or 5 years when he'll no longer need his shoes. My baby is 20 months now and we are still on our journey too. She's walking now and its beautiful to watch because when i first saw her feet, i never thought that'll be possible. Ps: I was never told my baby will be born with clubfoot from any of my scans and i also had her prematurely at 27 weeks. Thanks for sharing your journey and you've all got this mama💪

Adorable boy! Im 65 and was born with knock knees & pigeon toed. At 6 months, doctors put me in casts for a long time. My legs looked good, and my feet were now straight. They missed a few important things, and at 50 yo i had both knees replaced because the leg bones were not aligned. Thank goodness we have such wonderful technology. He will be perfect.

Oh, this brings back memories…💗 my daughter had the casting and surgery 13 years ago. It’s amazing how by age 1 there was no way to tell that she was born with severe clubfoot. And the fact that the brace is only needed at sleep time meant that it didn’t interfere with her normal day craziness.

I had this same procedure done back in the early 80’s to correct my bilateral club foot. I had the casts and tenotomy done and in total I think I wore casts on my legs for just over 6 months.

Its amazing how babies can heal so easily. I'm glad his foot issue was fixed now, so he doesn't have problems later. My family keeps chickens for eggs, and recently, our hens figured out how to hatch eggs. And then my parents decided to get an incubator. Well, 1 of our 2 incubator chicks hatched with these crumpled up feet. We added a couple of old hand towls in the cage to give her a soft place to rest, and I'd occasionally pick her up and gently spread out her feet. 3 weeks later, amazingly, her feet managed to correct themselves without help.

A bit of inspiration for you: 1992 Olympic figure skating gold medalist Kristi Yamaguchi was born with club feet. Skating was part of her physical therapy regimen as a child in the late 70s. The stiffness of the boots and crossovers strengthened her tendons and ankles. She kept going thru pairs and singles and the rest is history ❤❤❤

My grandpa had clubbed hands and feet and while I know they tried casting and surgeries, they didnt have the best results with it. This was like 100 years ago though so im sure they know way better how to fix it now and the tenotomy sounds like a huge help and hopefully his feet will stay fixed. That being said my grandpa had a very full life. He was an artist, a farmer, and a brilliant man. He was married and had 3 sons and multiple grand children and great grandchildren and none of us have had any foot problems, so at least my grandpa's problem wasn't genetic. I am so happy your boy is doing well and good luck for the future!!

My friend’s child was born with club feet. His mother followed all of the Dr’s orders with casting, braces and surgery. Allen grew tall and joined the air force. He later became a tower operator and directed planes flying in and out. He grew to be a tall and exceptionally good looking young man. He married, his wife had a beautiful child. He was a wonderful man.

No, it is possible. It happened to me. Vut might not be the best term for it, is just burns/irritates the skin so bad it broke. I told the dr it was burning and they were cutting me, but they said it wasn't possible... Ended up with a 10-15cm long cut on my forearm. 24 years later and I still have two separate scars from that cut.

When I was born, it was initially thought that I had club feet, because my legs were rotated inward 90° at the hips. I had to sleep wearing a DB bar. Flat connected bars with baby shoes bolted to them facing outward at 45° angles. I wore corrective shoes at school once I was walking, though I tripped over my own feet constantly. I still remember how painful the contraptions I had to wear at night were and hated them, since there were a series of them as I grew. I used to cry when those things were put on me. My mom would often come into my room, sitting on the floor beside my crib then my "big girl" bed, till I could fall asleep. As I got older, my hips will sometimes pop partially out of their sockets but I learned that if I sit cross legged on the floor and leaned towards the hip that was out, I could pop it back into the socket. I am 64 now and will probably get arthritis in my hips. 🫤

I'm so glad it was so good for him, I'm still struggling with scar tissue from mine. I hope this is all that he has to do! Only my right foot was clubbed, and the way I had it explained to me was they cut out bits of bone from my foot, put them in the wrong spaces to flatten it, and then wrapped my achillies around the bottom of my foot to keep it up. My right foot is a size and a half smaller than my left

He had to have 4 different surgeries on it. But now he’s 27 the scars are still there but now he has problems with his ankle and up his leg, I feel so bad for him because if he’s on his feet his foot leg and knee cap are so swollen and very painful. I hope your little boy won’t have problems when he’s older.
