Third, the lower limb muscles are stiff, often crossed when being lifted up, or the toes stand inwardly buckled, etc. The stiffness of the legs is more obvious when bathing in water. IV. The spine has varying degrees of kyphosis or scoliosis. V. The head often cannot be placed in a central position and is often turned to the side or tilted back.
