The best age for correction of splayed leg.

Now every family has a baby, they are very precious, and they have put a lot of effort into every stage of their growth. Especially when the baby learns to walk, it will be more concerned. Some babies walk eight times, so what is the reason for the baby to walk eight times? This is what everyone wants to know. Let me give you a brief introduction, hoping to help you.

Introduction of Eight Characters in (1)

Name: Inner Eight Characters (also called Entering Foot)

Definition:? When the child walks, his feet are in the state of internal rotation. There are morphological foot and gait foot. Morphological foot is a problem of foot bone structure, forming a banana-shaped foot shape, and gait foot is formed by the inward rotation of femoral joint.

Reason:? Morphological foot is formed because of the problem of congenital foot bone structure. Causes of gait foot: Normal children's ankles are slightly pronated, so they have feet and feet, and the situation of pronation will generally improve after four years old. There are many reasons why the word foot keeps coming in. For example, the muscle strength of lower limbs is unbalanced. Bad posture (such as sitting, kneeling or sleeping on your stomach with your feet in a W shape) makes the femoral joint rotate outward.

Influence: walking is unbalanced and easy to fall. In addition, it also affects the appearance.

Handling:? You can do strong external rotation muscle exercises such as sideways running, cycling and breaststroke. In addition, pay attention to sitting posture and sleeping posture, and avoid W-shaped sitting posture, kneeling posture or prone position.

(B) the reasons for the formation of the inner eight characters

What is the reason why the baby appears eight characters when walking? It is a phenomenon that babies walk eight times for many reasons:

1, when the baby walks, in order to stand and land comfortably and naturally correct the body gravity, he adopts different gait. This is obviously physiological. If the situation is not serious, as the baby grows up, the internal eight-character phenomenon will disappear.

2, tibial pronation deformity, this is a congenital phenomenon, the baby's tibia is not straight, it turns inward at the ankle, and there is an internal character when walking. This kind of situation must go to the hospital for treatment as soon as possible, and orthopedic shoes will correct it by wearing special shoes with inner characters. This kind of shoes is customized according to the pronation of baby's feet. The upper is high and can fix the baby's ankle joint. The bottom is made into a certain slope according to the cause of baby's feet. As the baby's gait changes, he usually changes a pair of shoes every six months.

3. Children with "O" legs and "X" legs walk differently, centering on the knees. The "O"-shaped leg is that the child's tibia bends inward, and it is "O"-shaped when the legs are close together; The "X" leg is caused by genu valgus. When the legs are together, the calf leans outward to form an "X" shape with the thigh.

4, genetic factors, if parents go like this, then children are more likely to go like this.

5, the strength of the legs and ankles is insufficient. This phenomenon is especially obvious in sprint. Some babies push back desperately in order to run fast, and their feet turn inward or outward involuntarily.

6. I didn't master the correct posture of running or walking.

7. Influence of living environment.

8. Babies who have participated in basic dance training are also splayed feet.

9. The reasons for the formation of splayed feet should also be discussed when children begin to learn to walk. Some mothers measure their babies' intelligence by the time they can walk, so they are anxious to let them learn to walk. Because the baby's body is in the development stage, the feet are not strong enough. When walking and standing, the feet will naturally separate, so that the sole area will be widened to increase the strength to prevent falling, resulting in the posture of naturally separating the feet.

10, it is unscientific to let the baby wear hard leather shoes during the toddler period. Because children's foot bones are soft, ankle strength is weak, and leather shoes are hard and heavy, the baby has a feeling of "immobility" to shoes, which distorts the gait over time. Remind mothers that wearing cloth shoes is the best choice when they are toddlers.

1 1. Because the baby lacks calcium, the bone itself contains low calcium. Coupled with the pressure on bones when walking and standing, it is easy to make bilateral bones and hip joints outward, forming an "external picture" foot. Therefore, mothers should be careful not to let the calcium-deficient baby learn to walk too early, provide their children with enough food rich in protein, calcium and vitamin D in time, and take part in outdoor activities to prevent rickets.

(2) Matters needing attention in the eight characters:

Children aged 3- 12 are in the development period of arch bone, which is the golden age of arch formation. If you wear shoes improperly or are too fat, and your sitting posture is not good, it will affect the normal development of muscles and ligaments, and it is most likely to lead to flat feet, varus hind feet and X? Foot diseases such as legs. Children's skeletal gait correction pad of Friends of Foot scientifically supports the arch of foot by using the principle of human biomechanics, so that muscles, ligaments and bones can develop normally, and the arch of foot can be arranged orderly, helping children grow up healthily. In our daily study and life, once we find the inner eight characters or the outer eight characters, we should pay attention to correct them in time If one of our parents is an inner character or an outer character, we must pay close attention to the child's walking and running posture and correct the problems in time.

1 First of all, strengthen the strength exercises of legs, arches and ankles. For example: put your feet together and lift the pedal, and run in place or with your legs raised high (the amplitude and speed are controlled by yourself).

2. Master the correct running technical movements, and practice the correct technical movements repeatedly under the guidance of the teacher, so that the movements can achieve dynamic stereotypes.

3. Students who are splayed inside and outside due to the influence of living environment should pay attention to developing corresponding muscles. For example, do some exercises of thigh internal rotation and external rotation and hook the instep to do ankle internal rotation and external rotation.

4. In daily life, we should consciously correct the habit of splayed feet formed by habitual actions; The inner splayed feet can participate in basic dance training. For example, if you do leg press exercise, one foot is propped up and the other foot is placed on a handle about 80cm high. leg press asks you to rely on leg press's toes for external rotation.

5. Use professional foot orthosis with figure-of-eight corrective shoes, children's corrective shoes and insoles. After a certain period of correction, the effect can be achieved.

? In short, splayed feet, whether inside or outside, can be corrected as long as they are consciously orthopedic and insist on correct walking and running posture for a long time. The inner figure of eight is due to the long-term incorrect and uneven stress on the foot, which leads to the inner figure of eight. The inner character can be corrected by gait insole, which mainly supports the arch of the foot when walking, so that the three points on the foot become a plane force to stabilize the human foundation. Correcting the pace of walking can adjust the arrangement of the bones of the feet, and long-term orthopedic can make the arrangement of the bones of the feet reach the best state.

(D) Training methods of the inner eight characters

The training methods to correct splayed feet and splayed feet are the main reasons for splayed feet: standing and learning early in childhood, weak leg strength, difficult to keep the balance of the body, and the toes are naturally separated to the left and right, so as to expand the sole area, increase stability, prevent falling, and gradually form a habit. In addition, some people walk incorrectly, and gradually form a habit of splayed feet. The training method of self-correction is:

? First, squat method. People with splayed feet stand with their feet rotating outward; For people with splayed feet, stand with both feet in rotation and do squats, repeating 80 ~ 100 times, and practicing in 4 groups.

? Second, the vertical jump method. Leg jump can correct the internal splayed foot, cross-legged jump can correct the external splayed foot, or kick shuttlecock with the outside of the foot, and kick shuttlecock, football, sandbags and other things up continuously with the inside of the foot. Repeat your feet 80 ~ 100 times and practice in 4 groups.

? Third, the leg rest method. Put one leg on a horizontal plane, first relax the joint ligament of the lower limb, and pull the leg with both hands after about 10 minutes. People with splayed feet pull outward and those with splayed feet pull inward, each time 10 minute. Repeat the left and right feet four times.

? Fourth, the straight step. Draw two straight lines on the ground, and the distance between the two straight lines becomes a fist. It is required that the heels and toes should be stepped on a straight line, and the pace should be from small to large, from slow to fast, 30 to 50 times each time, and practice for 4 times.

? Five, straight jump footwork. Pull a rope on the ground so that the soles of your feet are parallel to the rope, or you can run along a drawn straight line. You are required to step on the line at every step, with your knees and toes facing forward and not deviating. Run 50 ~ 100 meters and practice for 4 times.

【 Description 】 While adopting the above correction methods, we should pay attention to the correct posture of sitting, standing, walking and running. As long as we pay attention to it ideologically and persevere, we will certainly achieve the goal of correction.

To correct splayed feet, in addition to letting children sit, stand, walk and run in a correct posture, the following methods can be adopted:

? 1. Gait practice gives the child a positive step and a large number of passwords, so that the child can walk slowly with the beat. The number of times, steps and time of practice every day can be determined according to the degree and length of the child's foot deformity, step by step.

? 2. Straight step method Draw two straight lines on the ground with an interval of about 10- 15 cm, so that children's toes and heels can walk back and forth on the straight lines, and the pace is from slow to fast. This kind of conscious training is persistent and effective.

? 3. Straight line running method Pull a bright plastic belt on the ground or draw a straight line with colored chalk, let the children stand on both sides of the straight line in parallel, let the children run along the straight line under the command of adults, and don't let the children appear splayed feet when running. In addition, to correct the splayed feet, you can kick the shuttlecock outward with your feet. When the foot correction has been improved, walking will still return to its original shape. At this time, you should always pay attention to observation and remind the children in time.

Corrective measures:

If the child has formed a splayed foot, it is necessary to correct it as soon as possible. For younger children, parents can put their hands under their armpits behind their children and let them walk along a wide straight line during training. When walking, pay attention to keep the direction of the child's knees always forward. Children keep their toes on the ground when their feet are off the ground, and let their knees have a slight rubbing process when they bend their knees and step forward. Practice twice a day, and long-term persistence will be effective. Older children can walk 1-2 times a day along a belt or a straight line on the floor in front of the mirror. When practicing, ask the child to pay attention to the movements of the instep and toes. As long as they practice repeatedly, they can correct their splayed posture for a long time.

If the child is short of calcium, it should be supplemented to prevent the child's bones from being deformed (bowlegged, X-legged, spine bent, etc.). ), so as not to let the children sit, stand and walk reluctantly. It is best to let your child lie prone 2-3 times a day to raise his head and expand his chest. On the basis of treatment, we should also pay attention to diet and supplement egg yolk, animal liver, vegetables and fruits rich in calcium and phosphorus, such as jujube and hawthorn, oranges and bananas. ? Chest deformity can be enlarged by raising head and abdominal position. Muscle massage can be used for lower limb deformity (O-leg massage lateral muscle group, X-leg massage medial muscle group), increasing muscle tension and assisting deformity recovery. Try to avoid falling asleep. Although sleeping on your stomach may not directly prove that it will have a bad influence on your baby's leg shape, when sleeping on your stomach, your baby's ankle will turn inward or outward, which may also affect his leg shape in the long run.
