The Milwaukee brace is difficult to make and is constructed especially to fit your child. It should be treated carefully. If any screws become loose, they should be tightened. Under no circumstances should you lengthen or shorten the brace without definite instructions from your child's doctor.
The metal uprights and screws tend to cause excessive wear and tear on clothes. Using 3M– Strapping Tape – placed lengthwise along the uprights – helps this. If the surfaces of the pads, chin piece or head rest become dirty or stained, use soap and water to clean them. If problems occur, immediately call your child's orthotist for adjustment. Do not wait for your child's next office visit.
