My 15-month-old child has crooked legs when walking. We should pay attention to giving him calcium supplements and comprehensive nutrition. Massage his legs more and observe the situation. Another thing is that the child may have some inward-turned feet phenomenon, so the shoes can be worn backwards for a period of time. This will ensure that the child has comprehensive nutrition. We will observe the situation when the child is older.

What disease could it be if a 15-month-old baby walks with his legs not straight?

1. Rickets: Due to lack of vitamin D, calcium or phosphorus in infancy, the normal development of bones is affected. Rickets is a systemic, chronic bone disease that is accompanied by other symptoms in addition to leg shape problems.

2. Blount's disease: due to abnormal development of the upper tibial growth plate, the legs are bent. The cause of Blount's disease is unknown, but it is associated with obesity and premature walking.

Mothers should not worry and should pay attention to adjusting the baby's diet and nutrition.
