What should I do if my baby has in-toeing?

Patient's question:

Right foot inversion in the mother led to oligohydramnios, resulting in congenital right foot inversion in the newborn. Previous treatment history and effectiveness: Not resolved. What kind of help is needed: Correction methods.

Doctor's answer:

Due to the pressure on both feet inside the uterine cavity, the muscle strength development is unbalanced. This is not a deformity. Upon careful examination, the soft tissues on the inner side of the feet are relatively loose, and they generally return to normal gradually within a few weeks after birth.
Advice: Newborns often have inwardly rotated feet, which is caused by the pressure on both feet inside the uterus and the unbalanced development of muscle strength. This is not a deformity. Upon careful examination, the inner soft tissues of the feet are relatively loose, and they generally return to normal gradually within a few weeks after birth.
