[quote=Anonymous]I know this is an old thread, but I want to add my experience for anyone else looking for some advice. My little brother was born severely pidgeon toed and knock kneed. He was born in 1992. His pediatrian referred us to an pediatric orthopedist, who suggest he use a night brace due to the severity, to avoid possible difficulties once he started walking. I don't remember how long he wore the night braces for (I was 10 at the time) but, by the time he started walking, he had a dramatic improvement with no paid or complications. He is 20 now, and you never would have known how inwardly rotated his feet were. He is incredibly athletic and runs cross country. We as a family had a wonderful experience with the night braces, and know that we avoided possible later complications had his body not corrected it on its own, as some children are known to do.[/quote]
