It can affect one foot (unilateral) or both feet (bilateral).
There is currently no way to prevent clubfoot.

The current treatment method of choice is the Ponseti method, a nonsurgical method. Prior to the Ponseti method, many babies were having full reconstructive surgeries for correction.

Many adults still suffer from damages caused by early invasive surgeries
