Proper Measurement:
Accurate measurement is crucial for effective treatment. The size (in this case, Size 23) is determined by the distance between the popliteal creases (behind the knees) when the baby's hips are maximally abducted. Your pediatrician or orthopedist will provide accurate measurements and determine the appropriate size. Refer to the included diagram for precise measurement instructions.
