Positional Foot Deformity: Foot Turned Upwards to the Shin [English] Permalink Public
This is a common foot condition in newborn babies. It usually happens when the baby does not have enough room in the womb to move its feet. When the baby is born, one or both of its feet is pushed up towards the shin and the front half of the foot is turned outwards. However, the foot is not fixed in this position. It can be gently moved into a normal position. (English) Colour
