AnswerDear Shalini,
This Orthopedic Chicago Podiatrist located in West Loop 60661, Roscoe Village 60618, Ukrainian Village 60622, Elmhurst 60126 & Bartlett 60103 says,
When there is clubfoot, braces offer minimal help. The correction is usually done with surgery or casting.Afterwards supportive shoes are best-not to restrict movement.
Hope this helps & Good Luck!
