Hi, If the problem is present only on one side, and his other developmental milestones are normal, this need not be attributed to cerebral palsy (CP). Most likely its is a minor club foot on one side. If It's still there at 2 years of age, I would suggest surgical correction after opinion of a pediatric orthopedist. Usually only a minor procedure(Achilles tendon release) will be sufficient. Since you have not mentioned location, I couldn't suggest a particular doctor or hospital Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
