Q.  To clinically  assess the below case to rule out neurological involvement , what should be done?

a. Press the tibia
b. test for Babinski sign
c. Stroke the sole
d. Achilles tendon reflex









































































































































Answer -
c

The deformity appears to be bilateral clubfeet in the given picture.

 Plantar stimulation of the feet can be done to check neurological status in a clubfoot.
Lack of dorsiflexion of the toes and resting position in plantar flexion, i.e. “The Drop Toe Sign,”  indicates a neurological etiology of the clubfoot deformity.
