My husband was born with a club foot and he is fine. I think they broke the foot so it could heal correctly, but I'm not exactly sure. I thought it was something you were born with also, but I'm sure he was a toddler when they broke his foot so I'm not sure if he was born with it or developed it. What I do know is he grew up playing baseball, football and soccer. He played football and did track in high school. Now he enjoys playing softball, sand volleyball and rock climbing.
Well her foot turns inward and its been like since she was born but the just thought it was from being in the womb but its been getting worse its turning in more

My dad was born with club feet and an inverted sternum. You could never tell, he only told me just recently because he wanted to make sure I took the proper vitamins. He claims its a vitamin deficiency.
