The correct sitting posture is cross-legged sitting, half-cross-legged sitting, long sitting V-shaped sitting and side sitting, and parents should help the baby adjust the sitting position in time.

2. Don't let the baby sleep on his stomach.

3.The legs are bent to the same degree.

4.No matter how old the child is, in addition to the crooked legs, it is accompanied by leg pain or short stature, and other limb development abnormalities.

It is normal for babies to have a little bending of their legs when they are young. However, there is a certain range of normality here, and parents cannot completely ignore the problem of their children's leg bending. Once the child has the serious condition mentioned above, parents need to take the child to the doctor as soon as possible so as not to delay the best time for the child.

Many mothers are very fond of their babies, and they are quite concerned about everything about their babies, and they are afraid that they will accidentally cause harm to their children. At this time, some careful mothers found that their baby's calves had a tendency to bend, and they were so anxious that they were in a hurry, for fear that their careless move would delay their child's life. So is calf curvature really that scary?

What to do if a one-year-old baby's calf is curvature.

In general, it is normal for a one-year-old baby to flex his or her calf. Because the muscles attached to a long bone (tibia) on the inside of his calf are thinner than those on the outside, it looks like his baby's calves are a little curved, which is actually an illusion. And the inverted toes of the fetus are caused by the fetus being held together in the mother's body for a long time.

After the baby is born, the limbs will be slow"Stretch"Open, but some babies"Stretch"The speed is slow, when it is time to learn to walk, there is a phenomenon of inward flexion of the toes, unsteady walking, two legs are slightly bent around 1 year old, and the X-ray film also shows that the calf bone is curved, but there is no X-ray manifestation of rickets. This is due to the fact that the child has just started to walk at this time, and his legs are not yet able to follow his body weight well.

Therefore, there is a temporary curvature of the lower leg, which can generally return to normal by the age of 2-3 years, and the X-ray also shows that the original calf bone curvature has been corrected. Both of these conditions are normal.

A baby with inward flexion of the toes will have two small feet tilted inward, but his feet and knees are basically fine. Yes"Duck feet"The baby is more unsteady when learning to walk and is prone to falling. If the baby's condition does not improve after the age of 2, the doctor may splint the baby's little foot and correct the foot posture with a limb frame, which may take up to a year.

How to prevent your baby's calf curvature.

The key to prevention is early, reasonable, and adequate calcium supplementation. First of all, early calcium supplementation is particularly important, and it should be done as early as the mother's pregnancy, which is very important.

When the mother is pregnant, the need for calcium increases greatly, and the amount of calcium supplementation must be increased during this period to prevent the baby from suffering from "congenital rickets" after birth. Secondly, the principle of reasonable and sufficient calcium supplementation. Calcium supplementation should be carried out under the guidance of a child health care physician or pediatric orthopedic surgeon, and parents should not increase or decrease the amount of calcium supplementation for their babies.

The crooked calf is not a terrible thing, in fact, it is just a part of the baby's development, and mothers can not worry too much. If you find that your child's calf curvature is very serious, you can go to the hospital for a check-up, and do not correct it yourself, in case the correction is too much, the impact on the child will be greater.

1. If it is an O-shaped leg, it can be accompanied by symptoms such as chicken breast, rib beading, and rib valgus.

Suggestions: It is recommended that you pay attention to your child's reasonable diet, the diet should be nutritious, appropriate calcium supplementation and vitamin D, warm weather and more sun, if the symptoms are severe, you can consider intramuscular injection of vitamin D** to avoid bone deformities.

2. The baby has just learned to walk, through its own adjustment to maintain the balance and support of the body, the leg shape will be a little inward or outwardly bent, pay attention to calcium supplementation to prevent type 0 legs, do not stand too early for a long time.

Usually, you can do a slight exercise to pull ligaments and joints, and learn to kick and press the legs. The bend is very strong, so go to the hospital to check whether it is a calcium deficiency or other conditions.

3. The correct method for detecting trace elements should be fasting for 4 to 6 hours, so that it is more accurate! Because babies absorb fast! The loss is also fast! It is impossible to keep your baby without eating for 4 to 6 hours! Most routine calcium tests are inaccurate!

Because the cause of O-shaped legs or X-shaped legs is calcium deficiency. Lack of cymbals not only causes O-shaped or X-shaped legs, but also affects physical and mental development.

Calcium deficiency is not only harmful to people, but also affects intelligence and causes immunity and resistance to decline, causing children to be prone to colds, fevers, and diarrhea. Therefore, it is important to prevent and supplement calcium during the baby's growth period.

It is recommended to go to a regular hospital for a check-up.

Causes of your baby's calf bending1.Normal physiological phenomenon

For most newborn babies, calf curvature is normal. Because the baby's body is curled up in the mother's womb, so after birth, the legs are still curled, and when the baby grows up, this situation will naturally improve, and parents should not worry too much.

2.Pathological phenomena

Some babies lack vitamin D and calcium, there will also be leg bending, at the same time, there will be sweating, irritability, sleep disturbance or tantrum symptoms, if parents find that the baby has these symptoms, you need to take the baby to the doctor in time, under the guidance of the doctor to supplement calcium and vitamin D, but also to strengthen exercise, improve muscle tone, if more than three years old has not been corrected, it needs to be operated as soon as possible**.

3.Be active and exposed to the sun. Parents should take their babies to bask in the sun more, which can help promote the absorption of calcium, and at the same time let the baby exercise more and exercise the muscles and bones of the lower limbs, so that the baby's legs can gradually straighten.

4.Go to the hospital for a check-up. If parents are really worried, they can take the baby to the hospital for examination in time, so that they can determine whether there is a problem with the baby's calf.

The baby's leg shape develops regularlyWhen a baby is born, the legs look O-shaped, and this is because the fetus has a long-term bend of the legs in the womb, so O-shaped leg symptoms will occur at birth. After one and a half years of age, as the baby's body develops, the strength of the baby's legs gradually increases, and the leg shape will gradually straighten.

At the age of 2 and a half to 5 years, the baby's legs will be turned out, known as X-shaped legs. This stage lasts until the end of around the age of 8, at which point the child's leg shape becomes the normal leg shape of an adult.

The baby walks with bent legs, what is the degree of bending, it is recommended to take the baby to the hospital to the doctor to see, the bend is serious and needs to be corrected, if it is only a slight bend, and make sure that there is no lack of calcium, do not worry too much, the older will correct themselves.

If the baby sweats a lot, has difficulty falling asleep, and is easy to wake up, it may be a calcium deficiency, and the baby needs to be given calcium in time to meet the needs of bone growth.

In addition, it should be noted that when training the baby to walk, the baby should not be allowed to walk for too long at a time, so as not to aggravate the bending and deformation of the leg bones.

A one-year-old baby walks with a little crooked calf and is deficient in calcium. Pay attention to the three major symptoms of severe calcium deficiency in the baby: 1.
