Is It Normal for a 3-Month-Old Baby’s Hip Joint to Be Tight?

My baby is 3 months and 14 days old. I feel that his hip joint is a bit tight. Sometimes it loosens up by itself when moving, but most of the time it is tucked in and tightly held, causing the middle finger of his right hand to bend and not be able to lift it up. This might be a symptom of high muscle tone. It is recommended to visit a regular pediatric orthopedic department for further examination and treatment to rule out congenital hip dislocation. Please pay close attention and don’t worry too much.
