Hip dysplasia is mainly caused by congenital factors, as well as genetic factors, which have a significant impact on the future. So when parents discover that their baby's hip joint is underdeveloped, they must take it seriously and take timely measures. So what should be done for children with hip dysplasia?
Hip joint dysplasia in babies can have an impact on their future life, so it is necessary to improve it in a timely manner. The earlier it is discovered, the better the treatment effect will be. Hip joint dysplasia can be corrected early to improve. For example, using an outward extending frog style plaster fixation for fixed treatment. For babies with severe conditions or those who have already progressed to advanced stages, surgery is necessary for treatment.
If the baby's hip joint is found to be underdeveloped, it is necessary to reduce the femoral head as soon as possible. After reduction, it is necessary to use plaster or fixed brackets to fix the hip joint externally, or perform frog position fixation. It is also necessary to check the baby's hip joint on time, do X-ray examination, and see the recovery situation.
If the baby discovers hip dysplasia within six months, they can undergo sling treatment. If fixed treatment is needed between 6 and 18 months, and if it is already between 18 months and three years old, surgical reduction treatment can be performed, followed by plaster fixation. If you are over three years old, the treatment will be more complicated and the effect will be worse.
