Children with bent calves consider physiological bending, vitamin D deficiency rickets or congenital tibial dysplasia and other causes, need to be based on the specific causes of targeted treatment, including general treatment, vitamin D supplementation, surgical treatment and so on.
1. Physiological bending: mostly seen in children before walking, usually no special treatment is needed, and the symptoms can usually improve by themselves with the maturity of growth and development.
2. Vitamin D deficiency rickets: Vitamin D deficiency leads to calcium absorption obstacle, which leads to leg bending, vitamin D should be supplemented in time to promote calcium absorption, calcium deficiency is serious or the effect of vitamin D supplementation is not good can be prescribed by the doctor to supplement calcium supplements, such as calcium gluconate, etc., usually more sun exposure, more calcium-rich substances, such as milk, eggs and so on.
If the curvature of the calf is serious, surgery is needed to correct it.
3. Congenital tibial hypoplasia: the first external support can be fixed to correct the bending, if it is not effective, surgical treatment is needed, such as osteotomy corrective surgery.
Children with bent calves should consult the doctor for diagnosis in time, and follow the doctor’s instructions to carry out targeted treatment, so as not to miss the opportunity for treatment. All of the above drugs should be used under the guidance of a doctor.
