Children with clubfoot not cursed, condition treatable - Brazza International Foundation

The Brazza International Foundation has emphasized that clubfoot, a common birth defect affecting children's feet, is not a curse but a treatable condition. During a recent event aimed at raising awareness, representatives from the foundation highlighted the importance of early diagnosis and intervention. Clubfoot can lead to significant mobility challenges if left untreated, but with proper medical care, most children can achieve normal function.

Health experts pointed out that many parents hold misconceptions about the condition, often attributing it to supernatural causes. The foundation aims to educate families about the realities of clubfoot, reinforcing that it is a manageable condition requiring a structured treatment approach.

Through community outreach and partnership with healthcare professionals, Brazza International seeks to ensure that affected children receive necessary treatments—including corrective surgery and physical therapy—at an early age. Their efforts are part of a broader initiative to create supportive environments for children with disabilities and promote inclusive healthcare practices across communities.
