A member asked:
What can i do if my child had corrective surgery and is still pigeon-toed?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends on severity: of the deformity. IF significant deformity still exists on xrays and child has symptoms of tripping etc, then further surgery may be necessary. However, if the deformity is mild in nature and n symptoms are present then good sturdy shoegear with functional orthotics should suffice.
