Why do babies have O-legs, chicken breasts and O-legs caused by rickets? The symptom of rickets is the disorder of calcium and phosphorus metabolism caused by calcium, phosphorus and vitamin D deficiency, which leads to the deposition of calcium in human bone culture matrix and the excessive accumulation of osteoid institutions during the growth and development of children. Vitamin D is common in clinical medicine in China. Babies belong to many groups because they have no symptoms of rickets. The clinical manifestations are easy sweating, night terrors, skull, skull softening, delayed teething, O-leg or X-leg, etc. For O-legs caused by this situation, it is generally necessary to integrate vitamin D and iron supplements recommended by doctors, effectively balance the diet, enhance the opportunity of sunbathing, and gradually improve the intensity of exercise.
Walking too early, because each baby's physical quality is different, so many babies will learn to walk later, it does not mean that their growth and development are slower than others, just because each baby's growth and development are different, for example, some children will talk early, some babies will learn to walk early, and some babies will teether early. Similarly, some babies will learn to walk in the future. At this time, some mothers will be eager for quick success and let the baby walk, but if it is long-term, it will lead to premature weighing of the baby, leading to abnormal bone growth, which will lead to O-legs.
How to correct the baby's O-leg? People with O-legs who adjust their walking posture often see the figure of eight when walking, that is, in the case of walking, their toes are divided outward, and in the case of driving, their feet will exert outward force and their kneecaps will be subjected to outward force. In the long run, when you stand up, your kneecaps will not close properly and become O-legs. Therefore, we must first adjust our walking posture and learn to focus on the inside of our legs. A good walking posture should be that the human body is standing, the abdomen is straight, the eyes are looking straight ahead, the arms release pressure on both sides of the body, and of course, there is shaking, the soles of the feet are slightly outward or directly forward, and the waist is symmetrical.
Straight hair splint fixation, preferably after the child falls asleep at night. The method is: choose a board with the same width as the child's knee joint, and the length can include more than the middle between the foot and the thigh root. Cover it with a soft rag first to prevent crushing injury. Empty the kneecap according to the orientation of the child's kneecap deformity. If the child has O-legs, put the straight hair splint on the inside of the leg. Fix the feet and knees with gauze first, and then slowly and forcefully fix the knees on the straight splint. Gradually, not too tight, let the baby integrate into the whole process. You can also use bilateral straight hair splint, but it is very inconvenient.
How to prevent the baby from having O-legs? Appropriate vitamin D supplementation, many parents think that calcium supplementation is enough for their babies, and they usually ignore vitamin D supplementation for their children. In fact, vitamin D promotes the digestion, absorption and storage of calcium and phosphorus, and also has the function of preventing rickets. Naturally, children should be supplemented with vitamin D under the guidance of a doctor. Prevent children from using walkers, because the structure of walkers will give children some inappropriate support points, so that children can not learn to walk in a normal posture. Moreover, the walker will prevent parents from observing their children learn to walk.
