Many mothers are worried that their children may suffer from leg warmers, which not only affect their bone development but also are very unsightly. So, what if a one year old baby suffers from leg problems? Is there any better way to correct it?
Loop legs
Loop legs are a nickname used by people to describe legs that are in an "O" shape or similar to an "O" shape. Legs with loops are caused by abnormal bone development deformities. There are generally two reasons for the formation of curly legs: one is to suffer from rickets in childhood; Secondly, the growth and development stages of bones are influenced by special lifestyle habits.
Rickets is generally caused by vitamin D deficiency. When vitamin D is deficient, the absorption of calcium and phosphorus in the intestine decreases, resulting in a decrease in calcium and phosphorus. On the one hand, the body, under the regulation of the parathyroid gland, decalcifies the already grown old bones (reducing their hardness) to alleviate the deficiency of calcium and phosphorus in the blood; On the other hand, due to calcium deficiency, new bone has insufficient calcification and a soft texture, with relaxed muscles and joints. When walking upright, it will deform under the action of gravity.
Correction methods for loop legs
1. Leg compression exercise: usually using straight leg compression and side leg compression.
2. Kicking exercise: The O-leg adopts the calf outward kicking method; X-shaped legs use the calf kick technique.
3. Leg clamping exercise: Hold your feet, ankles, and knees together and clamp them tightly for a few minutes before relaxing. Then repeat the usual walking and pay attention to posture.
In addition to very serious bone deformities that require medical correction, mild symptoms of leg curling can be corrected through exercise. A one year old baby has curly legs, and parents can encourage their child to continue with the above corrective training, believing that they will definitely recover. If there is no relief or correction, it is recommended to consult relevant experts and undergo correction under the guidance of a doctor.
