Hi,
Not sure if this is the right place for talipes questions but I'll give it a go!
Dd has club foot and after the casting stage is now on the boots and bar stage....My little girl was started on the Markell boots (white with laces and one buckle, with a detachable bar) but had a lot of problems. She slips in the size medium 00 boots and a second pair of markell small 00 boots were too small so her toes got blisters from being on the end ...... BUT these medium boots are getting a little more wearable now- they still slip 3-4 times a day but we are managing with grippy socks etc.
I am pretty sure that when I go for my next appointment , my physio has said shewill probably end up measuring me for the Mitchell boots if these are still causing blisters.
Should I stay with the markell boots which are ok, not perfect but usable- ( and cost only £50 per pair for the NHS) or risk the Mitchell boots which I have heard better things about and are made to measure I think (but cost the NHS around £300 per pair) Please help :)

AIBU to use NHS resources if I'm not sure DD needs it?
