Question

My friend recently spent some time in the hospital because their baby was experiencing leg pain and difficulty sleeping at night. I’m wondering if the baby’s knees are bent normally?

Answer

The use of baby walkers can sometimes cause knock-knees, which can make correction more complex. In some cases, braces and splints may be used for correction. If the condition is particularly severe, it might require a surgical procedure to cut and reposition bones. Pediatric bone diseases can significantly impact the health of patients, so in addition to treating the symptoms, daily care is also crucial. This includes increasing the intake of vegetables, fruits, and calcium-rich foods in the diet to reduce the risk of disease.
