Patient's question:
It was found that the gluteal fold is asymmetrical. The ultrasound data is as follows:Left side:
Iliac bone: Straight
Acetabular rim: Sharp
Femoral head ossification center: Not visible
Labrum: Visible. α=58 β=45 D=19.2 d=11.4
Right side:
Iliac bone: Straight
Acetabular rim: Sharp
Femoral head ossification center: Not visible
Labrum: Visible. α=61 β=50 D=19.8 d=10.6
Doctor's answer:
Children grow and develop rapidly and do not require special treatment. Regular follow-up is necessary, primarily involving pelvic X-rays to prevent the occurrence of congenital hip dislocation later on. abduction exercises can be done, but they are not mandatory. The main issue is developmental, and it cannot be said that performing these exercises will necessarily improve the condition. Even if the exercises are not done, the condition will still improve.Frog-leg casts are typically used when the child is older, usually between 1 and 2 years of age. Normal holding positions are sufficient. The child should be placed in a supine position, and left lateral lying should be avoided to reduce pressure on the affected limb. Calcium supplements for children, such as cod liver oil or gluconate calcium, can be used, along with regular sun exposure and a well-balanced diet to enhance nutrition.
