The asymmetry of the baby's hip lines may be caused by these two reasons, and parents should not ignore it

During the physical examination, the doctor will take off the baby's diapers and turn over to take a look, which is to check whether the baby's hip lines are symmetrical. Baby's hip wrinkles refer to the skin folds between the baby's buttocks, while the asymmetry of the buttocks refers to the difference in depth, lightness, length, shortness, number, position, etc. of the baby's hip lines on both sides. Asymmetry of hip striae in infants and young children is actually a very common normal physiological phenomenon.

1, the baby's fat is more, and the fat accumulation is asymmetrical

Some small babies have more fat, the skin wrinkles on the body will be more, and the legs are shorter and smaller than adults, which can easily lead to asymmetrical accumulation of fat, resulting in asymmetry of hip lines. In general, the baby's legs can move normally and the amplitude of movement is symmetrical. Parents don't have to worry too much, and they don't have to think of ways to correct it.

2. Hip dysplasia

Hip dysplasia refers to a range of diseases associated with hip development that may occur in infants and young children.

If the hip is dysplasia, it cannot form a normal joint "nest", which causes the hip joint to be too loose, so that the joint "ball" can easily slide out of the joint. Once the joint "ball" has completely slipped out of the joint, then a joint "dislocation" occurs.

Hip dysplasia may occur during the fetal period or after birth, and babies with this disease generally have other manifestations in addition to asymmetric hip lines, including:

(1) Asymmetry of leg stripes (asymmetry of skin folds between the baby's thighs and calves);

(2) The legs on the side where dysplasia occurs will appear shorter;

(3) The hip joint activity on the side of dysplasia will be restricted, there is little strength, and the legs often maintain a bent posture and are unwilling to straighten;

(4) When changing your baby's diapers or bathing, you can always hear abnormal joint bouncing sounds.

In fact, most babies with asymmetric hip streaks do not mean that there is hip dysplasia. Therefore, parents do not have to worry too much. To be cautious, it is best to take your baby to the pediatric or child health department as soon as possible for a detailed examination. If necessary, hip ultrasound (babies under 6 months) or X-rays (babies over 4 to 6 months old) are also done to further diagnose whether hip dysplasia has occurred.
