Talipes is a medical condition that affects the feet and ankles. It is also known as CLUBFOOT, which is an 8-letter term used to describe the condition. Talipes is a congenital deformity that causes the foot to be twisted inwards and downwards. It can affect one or both feet and can range from mild to severe. Treatment for talipes usually involves stretching and casting the affected foot, followed by bracing and physical therapy. In some cases, surgery may be necessary.
