How to check infant hip joint with ultrasound

Patient's question:

A child around 5 years old has recently been experiencing frequent complaints of leg pain, for which I would like to ask: How is the hip joint ultrasound of an infant performed?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, a detailed examination by a surgeon is required. If this is the case, you need to take your child to a regular, larger hospital to see an orthopedic doctor for evaluation to determine if surgery is necessary.
Hello, for fractures, there is a natural healing process, and medication cannot fundamentally change this. Generally, fractures require 4-8 weeks to heal.
Some drugs that promote bone growth can be used, such as oral bone-setting tablets for oral treatment.
