Contact Clubfoot Forward
Use this page to contact Clubfoot Forward with guide feedback, story ideas, correction requests, parent questions, adult clubfoot topics, or suggestions for future resources.
Parents, adults with clubfoot, clinicians, athletes, caregivers, and readers are welcome here. The best messages are specific: which page you read, what question brought you here, what part of the clubfoot journey you are in, or what topic still needs a clearer guide.
Clubfoot Forward is built to make clubfoot information easier to understand in real life. That includes diagnosis questions, Ponseti treatment, bracing, relapse, surgery decisions, adult pain, gait compensation, shoes, running, military service, and long-term outcomes.
This contact page is not for urgent medical decisions. It is for communication about the site, its resources, lived experience, reader questions, corrections, and future topic ideas.
Best Use
Use this page for site questions, feedback, and corrections
Send messages about pages, topics, story ideas, unclear explanations, broken links, resource gaps, or guides that need a stronger parent or adult perspective.
Medical Boundary
This is not a medical practice
Clubfoot Forward cannot diagnose, change brace schedules, interpret imaging, recommend surgery, or replace your child’s orthopedic team.
Helpful Messages
Specific messages are easiest to act on
Tell me the page, topic, question, correction, or lived-experience issue you are writing about so the message can be handled clearly.
If You Need Urgent Help
Do not use this contact page for urgent medical concerns. Contact your child’s orthopedic team, pediatrician, clinic, emergency department, or local emergency services for same-day medical decisions.
If You Are New Here
If your message is really about getting oriented after a diagnosis, start with the Clubfoot Resources Guide or the Clubfoot Early Treatment Hub first.
Important: Messages sent through this site do not create a doctor-patient relationship and should not be used for urgent clinical advice, diagnosis, brace instructions, imaging review, surgery decisions, emergency symptoms, or same-day medical questions.

What Clubfoot Forward Cannot Do
Clubfoot Forward is an educational resource. It can help organize information, explain topics in plain language, and improve guides based on reader feedback. It cannot replace medical care.
- No diagnosis: I cannot diagnose clubfoot, relapse, gait problems, nerve issues, pain causes, or post-surgical complications through a message.
- No brace schedule changes: I cannot tell you to change, stop, restart, or adjust a prescribed brace schedule.
- No imaging interpretation: I cannot interpret X-rays, ultrasound findings, MRI reports, or surgical imaging.
- No surgical recommendations: I cannot tell you whether you or your child should have tenotomy, tendon transfer, osteotomy, arthrodesis, revision surgery, or any other procedure.
- No urgent medical triage: urgent symptoms belong with your medical team, clinic, emergency department, or local emergency services.
Before You Send a Message
To protect privacy, avoid sending information that could identify a child or expose private medical details unnecessarily.
- Do not send full names, dates of birth, home addresses, school names, or medical record numbers.
- Do not send face photos or identifying images of a child.
- Do not send urgent questions that need same-day medical decisions.
- Do not send imaging files expecting diagnosis or interpretation.
- Do not send private medical details that are not needed to explain your question.
A useful message can still be specific without being overly personal. For example: “I read the brace adjustment guide and still do not understand heel slipping,” or “I think the relapse page needs a section about toddlers who start toe walking again.”
Guide Corrections, Broken Links, and Updates
Correction requests are welcome. If a page seems unclear, outdated, poorly worded, medically incomplete, or missing a practical parent/adult angle, send the page title or URL and the specific section that needs review.
Helpful correction messages include:
- the page title or URL
- the sentence, section, or claim that needs review
- why it seems unclear, incomplete, or outdated
- any credible source or clinical context that explains the concern
- whether the issue is about parent guidance, adult guidance, medical wording, links, or readability
For broader standards, see the Clubfoot Editorial Policy.
Story Ideas and Future Topics
Some of the strongest Clubfoot Forward resources come from real questions that generic medical pages do not answer clearly enough. Topic suggestions help identify those gaps.

Diagnosis, casting, tenotomy, bracing, and relapse
Send topic ideas about prenatal diagnosis, first cast worries, tenotomy fear, brace fit, missed brace nights, heel slipping, toe walking, or relapse signs.
Adult Topics
Pain, work, shoes, gait, and long-term function
Send topic ideas about adult clubfoot pain, standing tolerance, footwear, orthotics, running mechanics, calf atrophy, stiffness, surgery history, or long-term adaptation.
Experience Topics
Military, sports, family life, and lived reality
Send topic ideas about military service, sports participation, confidence, social impact, parenting through treatment, school-age issues, or the emotional side of clubfoot.

Contact Clubfoot Forward FAQ
What can I contact Clubfoot Forward about?
You can contact Clubfoot Forward about guide feedback, correction requests, story ideas, topic suggestions, parent questions, adult clubfoot topics, video ideas, or site navigation issues.
Can Clubfoot Forward give medical advice?
No. Clubfoot Forward is educational and cannot provide diagnosis, urgent medical advice, brace schedule changes, imaging interpretation, surgical recommendations, or individualized treatment plans.
Should I use the contact form for urgent clubfoot problems?
No. Urgent medical concerns should go to your child’s orthopedic team, pediatrician, clinic, emergency department, or local emergency services. A website contact form is not appropriate for urgent medical decisions.
What information should I include in a message?
The most helpful messages include the page or topic you are writing about, the question you are trying to answer, whether the issue is about a parent resource or adult clubfoot resource, and whether you are reporting a correction, sharing a story, or suggesting a topic.
What private information should I avoid sending?
Avoid sending full names, dates of birth, medical record numbers, addresses, face photos, imaging files, or urgent medical details that require same-day clinical decisions.
Can I suggest a new clubfoot topic?
Yes. Topic suggestions are welcome, especially when they point to a real parent question, adult clubfoot problem, brace issue, pain pattern, surgery decision, gait concern, shoe problem, or long-term outcome question that needs clearer explanation.
How should I report a correction or outdated guide?
Send the page title or URL, the section that may need correction, what appears unclear or outdated, and any source or context that helps explain the concern. Clubfoot Forward reviews correction requests against its editorial standards.
