Patient's question:
NoDoctor's answer:
If one is of normal intelligence, walking can be gradually trained. Enhancing nutrition can involve supplementing with calcium pills and vitamin D until the age of two. Parents only need to provide a safe environment for the child. If the child enjoys crawling, encourage them to crawl more. If they like standing, let them practice standing independently, holding onto the bed or walls. You will find that the child gradually learns to stand while holding onto things and then to walk along the edge of the bed. Gradually, you will notice the child taking normal steps while holding onto the wall with one hand. At this point, parents should encourage the child, and slowly, the child will start walking a few steps without holding onto anything. After another half month to a month, the child will be able to walk independently, though they may still fall easily. However, as long as parents are not afraid of the child falling frequently and encourage them to walk more, after about another month, the child will walk much more steadily.
