Best Clubfoot and Flatfoot Treatment in Secunderabad

Clubfoot and flatfoot are distinct foot conditions with unique characteristics and treatment approaches.

Clubfoot, also known as congenital talipes equinovarus (CTEV), is a congenital condition where the foot turns inward and downward. It presents in various forms, including positional clubfoot, idiopathic clubfoot (of unknown cause), and syndromic clubfoot associated with genetic syndromes.

Symptoms involve the inward and downward turning of the foot, and severity varies. Genetic and environmental factors contribute to clubfoot, and treatment focuses on correction through non-surgical methods like stretching, casting, and bracing, with surgical intervention in severe cases. Ongoing research aims to improve treatment and understand contributing factors.

Flatfoot, or pes planus, is characterized by flattened arches and can be congenital or acquired. Types include flexible flatfoot (arch appears only when not standing) and rigid flatfoot (no arch even when not standing).

Symptoms may include pain and swelling, especially after extended periods of standing or walking. Causes range from genetics to injury and obesity. Treatment involves non-surgical methods like orthotic devices, supportive footwear, and physical therapy, with surgery considered in some cases. Ongoing research focuses on refining treatment approaches and understanding diverse causes.
