What should I do if my child has a curved spine?

If a child has a curved spine, it is most likely caused by calcium deficiency. Parents must pay attention to supplementing their children with calcium in time. If the child has not been weaned, the mother can eat more foods containing calcium and feed the baby through breast milk. If the child is older and is being weaned, he or she needs to eat more milk or pork ribs. If that doesn't work, he or she can take some calcium tablets.

First of all, because the child's spine is very flexible and easily shaped, children, especially those in their developmental stage, adolescence, and those who are overweight, should choose to sleep on a hard bed in order to better maintain the physiological curvature of the spine.

Secondly, in terms of children's shoe-wearing habits, do not choose shoes that are too large for your child. Shoes that are too large will make the child's lower limbs walk very uncoordinated. If this continues for a long time, it will increase the pressure on the spine. Also, do not choose shoes with overly hard or thick soles for your children, as that will prevent their feet from feeling the ground better when they walk, thereby increasing the load-bearing capacity of the spine. Do not let girls wear long boots that restrict ankle movement, or even high-heeled or pointed-heeled leather shoes, as this will increase the burden on the spine, especially the waist.

Finally, you should avoid using a single-shoulder bag as a school bag when you go to school. Although it looks cool, you may end up with uneven shoulders or even scoliosis when you grow up. The chairs in the classroom can never be suitable for every child. Therefore, it is recommended that children sit in the front third or half of the chair surface, and try to sit with the upper body straight, and do not keep a flexed back or bent waist to reduce the pressure on the heart, lungs and waist.

Simple daily habits can have a significant impact on your health. We should learn to control our habits rather than be controlled by them.

Also, it is important to make sure children maintain a good sitting and standing posture, and develop good habits so that children can have a healthy spine and grow normally. Also, parents must always correct their children's bad habits, always urge their children to eat more foods containing calcium, pay attention to a reasonable diet, and exercise appropriately.
