Information on ClubFeet in Black and White

Survey about Club Feet and Club Foot

I often get asked questions which nobody has a real answer for.

The main question I get asked is
"I have Club Feet, does that mean by children will?"

Some people Say yes, some people say no. I want to find out how many people have Club Feet, and their children have Club Feet, or how many people have Club Feet, and there parents have Club Feet.

To help me find an answer, please take 2 minutes of your time to complete the survey

Surveys on ClubFeet.net

I have only just had this idea, so for now there is only one.

Is Club Feet Hereditary?

Results

The results are in, and will now be automatically updated.

I would like to thank all people who helped in this survey.


351 surveys have been completed.

On my conclusion, we have a wide selection of results. A few people have said that they have Club Feet or Club Foot, but there children don't, or there parents and grand parents.

Some people have mentioned that there Grandparent, a parent, them and there child has, but they have more than one child, and only one child with Club Feet.

The information from this survey supports theorys stating that there are 2 types of Club Feet. ClubFeet can be in the genes, may miss some generations, but be carried, AND Club Feet can be caused while in the womb, nothing to do with genes, and will not be carried.

The full results can be found below.
