Walk like a crab
The baby's feet are inward, like a big clip! This kind of walking posture is very common among toddlers.
In the first few years, when a child walks, his head leans forward so that his feet are inward. Around the age of 3, when his thigh and calf muscles are stronger, this walking posture will disappear.
Corrective method:
1. If his feet are always inward and you think this walking posture is really indecent, you can pay attention to let him sit cross-legged while sitting on the ground instead of crossing his legs.
Or buy him hard-soled shoes, and he can correct his walking posture in less than a year.
Walk like a duck
The child walks like a duck, which is a physiological problem because he is still flat-footed. A child needs to hone the muscles of the soles of his feet and develop the radian when walking. Before the age of 5, 95% of children's soles will naturally have radians.
Corrective method:
1. If you think your child is ugly when he walks, you can also let him play a game of holding a pencil, handkerchief or big button with his toes when he is about 2 years old.
2. Push a three-wheeled or two-wheeled stroller, and the curvature of the child's sole will form faster.
3. When in playing tag, hold the child's hand and let him step on the bucket.
4. Or encourage him to walk on tiptoe.
It is normal for a baby to have flat feet. On the contrary, if the baby has an arch, it is likely to indicate a nervous system disorder.
Walk like a cowboy in the west
The baby's legs spread apart, as if he had been trained in equestrian. Before the age of 2, if his legs are like stents, you don't have to worry too much. However, if this situation persists, it may indicate that there are signs of calcium and vitamin deficiency and need treatment.
Corrective method:
In some cases, children's legs can also be put in plaster to help correct their legs. But this should be done by a doctor in the case of diagnosis.
Walk with your legs between your thighs.
Baby's legs are X-shaped, which are generally more common in children who are unwilling to walk (they can't walk far, but they want to hug when they walk a little). Some people call it "big ass syndrome" rudely.
Correction: This posture is lack of muscle weight-bearing exercise. Generally, only a little exercise or even a little gymnastics training at the age of 8 can correct this indecent walking posture.
Tips:
Many babies who just learn to walk are prone to sprains, and at this time, the baby usually can't express himself clearly, so parents should carefully observe the baby's every move to know.
Experts say that parents should carefully observe whether the baby is limping when walking, or kicking around in bed to see if it can be kicked well. In addition, they can also press various parts of the baby's leg to see if the baby will feel pain.
