Question

How to treat my 6-year-old daughter’s leg-crossing syndrome?

Answer

Leg-crossing syndrome usually appears in children around the ages of 2 to 3, being an instinctive physiological response and less common after the age of 10. Parents should not be overly anxious. Carefully check for symptoms such as worms and eczema, establish a regular routine, avoid bed rest, and promptly correct the child when they exhibit leg-crossing behaviors, providing toys to focus their attention.
