Clubfoot
Disease information
Clubfoot
The feet are part of the locomotive
system
and very important for all the people since they allow us to transfer us from
a
place to another one, to run, to
dance
, to jump, to put to us of ends to reach objects mainly and, in them falls all the
weight
of our body, more what we are loading at every moment.
It is integrated by 26 bones, 33 joints, 19 muscles and more than 100 ligaments and in addition it
has
2 arcs that serve as bony bridges to maintain the foot and to cushion the impact, one longitudinal to half of the foot and another small one in the front part. These arcs allow that the foot
has
strongpoints that make the march easier and placentera.
He is united to the leg by means of the ankle, that allows him to upwards move, down, to put it of end and to turn it, movements that make the march easier.
Sometimes, some
children
are born with
a
called deformity
congenital
foot zambo or equinovarus,
problem
that is commonest in men than in women and can affect one or on both feet.
This
congenital
deformity of the ankle and the foot happens during the fetal
development
and in most of the cases it must to that the metatarsianos bones bend downwards and inside, just as the heel, that it is turned towards the interior. In these cases the arc presents / displays an abnormal elevation and the joint of the ankle can be rigid or stiff, and pantorrilla is abnormally of the cases.
She thinks myself that most of the cases of foot zambo is
a
congenital
defect of the ankle and the surrounding muscles and the cause cannot be identified, nevertheless, she
has
been related to the consumption by the
mother
during the medicine
pregnancy
like the tetotrexato that is used to treat the serious
arthritis
and
psoriasis
, reason why before any
pregnancy
, the mothers must have well - taken care of are the medicines that consume and to consult always to the
doctor
explaining to him the
diseases
well and medicines that take from the last months.
Also it is important to know that cases in that exist the foot of the baby is deformed immediately after the childbirth
but
that not necessarily zambo is
a
problem
of foot
but
of contracturas of the fetal
position
in the uterus, reason why in just
a
short time they recover its
normal
form.
