Why does my baby's knees make a crackling sound when he moves them?

People need to pay attention to the baby's joint health, because the incidence of baby joint diseases has been increasing in recent years, posing a hidden danger to the healthy growth of many babies. This disease greatly increases the probability of bone deformation and fracture in babies, causing them to suffer from an early age. Among them, it is common for the baby's knees to make crackling sounds when moving, which requires timely treatment. Let's take a look at what happens when the baby's knees make crackling sounds when moving.

The ligaments of babies are relatively weak, the articular sockets are shallow, the ligaments around the joints are relatively loose, the bones are soft, and there is cartilage at the ends of long bones. A similar "pop" may occur when the primary joints flex and extend, which is the joint sound you hear when you pick up your baby. If the child's activities are affected, he or she should go to the hospital for an X-ray. As children get older, their ligaments become stronger and their muscles develop, and the popping sound gradually disappears.

Life details: Preventing dislocation in children

Although a child's elbow dislocation has been repositioned, it is easy for it to recur. As the child grows older, the chance of elbow dislocation will gradually decrease after the age of 6. In daily life, whether helping babies to dress, walk, or play games with them, parents should try their best to avoid pulling the baby's arms hard. Even if pulling is necessary, the upper arm should be chosen.

In daily life, parents are advised to avoid pulling their children's limbs too hard. When taking children for a walk on the street, it is best to choose a flat ground. Uneven roads often cause parents to subconsciously pull their children's upper limbs. When going up and down stairs, parents should slow down and be careful not to pull their children too much. If they do pull, they should pull above the child's joints. When a child falls, parents should pick him up with both hands, do not pull the child's upper limb on one side, and let the child get up. When dressing and undressing children under 4 years old, parents should also be gentle and never pull or rotate the child's forearm excessively.
