Both of Dillon's feet look like the 'High arch' picture. The navicular bone is too high. The doctor recommends surgery, of course, to lower the navicular and fuse it to the ankle bone. It would just be a day surgery, but the recovery is 6 weeks of NO walking or weight on Dillon's feet, at all. The doctor suggested doing 2 separate surgeries so Dillon could just use crutches, but Dillon hates that idea. Going under the knife Twice! Dillon is scheduled to have his surgery on Aug 6th. I will take work off and be home to wheel him around!Tuesday, June 17, 2008
Dillon's Feet
Dillon has been having a lot of pain in his feet, for months. So we went to see his doctor at Primary Children's in Salt Lake City. They took x-rays and showed us what the problem was.
