Clubfoot:
Signs and symptoms
(Professional Guide to Diseases (Eighth Edition))
Talipes equinovarus varies greatly in severity. Deformity may be so extreme that the toes touch the inside of the ankle, or it may be only vaguely apparent. In every case, the talus is deformed, the Achilles tendon shortened, and the calcaneus somewhat shortened and flattened. Depending on the degree of the varus deformity, the calf muscles are shortened and underdeveloped, and soft-tissue contractures form at the site of the deformity. The foot is tight in its deformed position and resists manual efforts to push it into normal position. Clubfoot is painless, except in elderly, arthritic patients. In older children, clubfoot may be secondary to paralysis, polio-myelitis, or cerebral palsy, in which case treatment must include management of the underlying disease.

Depending on the degree of the varus deformity, the calf muscles are shortened and underdeveloped, with soft-tissue contractures at the site of the deformity.

Article Excerpts About Symptoms of Foot conditions:
Years of wear and tear can be hard on our feet. So can disease,
poor circulation, improperly trimmed toenails, and wearing shoes
that don't fit properly. Problems with our feet can be the first
sign of more serious medical conditions such as arthritis, diabetes,
and nerve and circulatory disorders. (Source: excerpt from Foot Care - Age Page - Health Information: NIA)
