Patient's question:

Newborn baby's calf bending
Newborn baby's calf bending, is it a disease and needs treatment?

Doctor's answer:

It can be corrected. Because calf bending is often caused by a lack of vitamin D and calcium in the body. Therefore, timely supplementation of vitamin D and calcium to the human body can promptly restore it. Methods for correcting genu varum (X-shaped legs) include surgery, braces, leg binding, exercises, corrective shoe inserts, etc. For children with rickets, they must receive standardized and systematic rickets treatment; at the same time, attention should be paid to preventing young children from walking too early.
