How to correct children's crooked feet when walking

A child's education from a young age affects all aspects of his future, so every parent will devote their entire life to their children's education. From the moment he is born, from the time he starts to speak, we need to closely observe his eating, clothing, housing and transportation. The child's crooked feet are also caused by lack of attention in daily life, which makes the situation more and more serious later. Therefore, once discovered, it must be corrected in time. There are many ways to correct it, and you can wear orthotics or correct it yourself at home.

1-2 years old is the stage when children begin to walk independently. The characteristics of walking are that the body cannot maintain balance, the legs are unstable, the muscles are tense, the steps are small, or they walk with their legs raised high or walking with the legs rubbing the ground. Moreover, the distance between the two feet is wide, the soles of the feet lack elasticity, and the speed is uneven. Therefore, the body sways from side to side, and the swinging movements of the arms are not coordinated with the walking movements of the feet. Therefore, some children bring their toes together and separate their heels outwards, forming an "inward-facing" step like a pigeon walking. This is a habitual movement of children to maintain body balance.

When children gradually learn to maintain their body's center of gravity and coordinate their movements, they will naturally change to normal walking, so adults do not need to worry too much. This is normal and does not require any special correction. But you can often remind your child to walk with his toes facing forward, or lead him to walk on a straight road, and let him walk alone in a straight line to get toys. With frequent training, the child will gradually change.

When a child walks, the toes are pushed inward, which is commonly known as "inward-turned". In medical terms, it is called "inward rotation gait". Most of the time, this is a normal physiological condition. There is often a certain family history, that is, some people in the family walk like this. Generally, the symptoms will gradually alleviate with age.

If the child's inward-facing feet is still serious when he is 4 to 5 years old, it can be corrected by the following methods: 1. Walking posture reminders: provide necessary reminders to children while they are walking; learning ballet: because after long-term training, most ballet dancers walk with their feet turned outward; wearing orthotics: wearing orthotics at night to correct the child's bones while the child is sleeping.
