Clubfoot is a congenital condition where a baby is born with one or both feet twisted inward and downward. This happens due to abnormal development of the muscles, tendons, and bones in the foot and ankle. It can make walking difficult if not treated early, but many children with clubfoot can lead normal, active lives after receiving proper care.
Treatment for clubfoot usually begins shortly after birth and may involve a series of casts to gradually correct the foot's position. In some cases, surgery may be necessary to realign the bones and tendons. With early intervention, most children can walk and run without any issues.
