Some mothers may notice that their child has some abnormal symptoms, saying that their one year old baby's toes are interlocked. So, what is the reason for this situation? Is it normal for a baby over one year old to have their toes interlocked?

  Factors affecting the inner toe buckle

  1. Genetic factors: This disease often has a family history and is related to genetics. Although genetics is an important factor, it is not yet possible to determine the pattern of dominant, recessive, or associated gene inheritance.

  2. Embryonic factors: Within 3 months of embryonic development, the foot is in three primitive deformities of horseshoe inversion, namely ptosis, adduction, and pronation (inversion). Starting from the fourth month, the foot is in a neutral rotational position, with mild adduction of the metatarsal bones, and the foot begins to rotate forward along the long axis, approaching the position of a normal human foot. Any developmental disorder will keep the foot in an abnormal position in the early embryonic stage.

  3. Intrauterine factors: Poor fetal position in the uterus, foot compression, prolonged foot adduction, heel inversion, and ankle prolapse. Correspondingly, the muscles on the posterior and medial sides of the calf shorten, and the medial joint capsule thickens, further placing the foot in a deformed position.

  4. Environmental factors: Many scholars have found that this disease is related to environmental factors. Injecting insulin into developing chicken embryos can cause varus deformity. It has been proven that during critical moments of limb development, hypoxia may lead to foot inversion.

  Toe adduction is one of the most common childhood diseases in our daily lives. The toe buckle is mostly a symptom of cerebral palsy, but the foot buckle may not necessarily be caused by cerebral palsy, and the cause is difficult to determine. Therefore, when a child appears at the toe, please go to the hospital as soon as possible to avoid delaying the disease and missing the best treatment time.
