Most of the mothers nowadays are only children with little experience in taking care of their babies, and most of them do not live with their parents, so they mostly take care of their babies themselves. For mothers without experience in taking care of their babies, they can only rely on self-learning some parenting books, but learning on paper is still shallow. What are the reasons for asymmetrical leg lines in infants? The answer may not be found in this book.
Reasons for Asymmetric Leg Patterns in Infants
The main reason is that when the mother is 2 to 3 months pregnant, during the period of fetal hip joint formation, fetal growth pauses due to the mother's cold, fever, or other diseases, and the joints do not develop normally, resulting in dislocation. The male to female ratio of the disease is about 1:5. The incidence rate of breech delivery is higher than that of cephalic delivery, and the incidence rate of caesarean delivery is higher than that of natural delivery, especially for the heavier babies in caesarean delivery.
Is it normal for baby leg wrinkles to be asymmetrical
Once parents discover it, they must take it to the hospital for consultation and corresponding examinations as soon as possible. Normal children with symmetrical leg patterns may have hip joint disease or lower limb inequality, with hip dislocation being the most common. However, there is a certain probability that children with asymmetric lower limb skin lines are normal children, which requires physical examination and necessary auxiliary examinations at the pediatric health department to confirm. Leg lines cannot be used as the only indicator to determine whether a child's lower limbs are developing normally.
After we understand the cause of abnormal baby leg lines, we don't need to worry too much. Go to the doctor first to determine whether it is the cause of the hip joint, so we can rest assured, and don't repeat the inspection. Because fatter babies will have more lines. As the saying goes, there will not be two identical things in the world, and adults will not have two identical hands, so it is OK to make sure there is no problem with the hip joint.
