1, caused by rickets
Most children's rib eversion is caused by rickets. Rickets: commonly known as calcium deficiency, more common in infancy. It is a disease that calcium and phosphorus metabolism in the body is disordered due to vitamin D deficiency, which leads to poor bone calcification. Listen to the doctor's advice and don't make it up!
2. Simple rib dysplasia
Because the two ribs at the bottom of the human sternum are not connected with the sternum, and the baby under 1 year old mainly breathes on the abdomen, and the abdomen moves greatly when exhaling and inhaling, so the baby with soft ribs will have the phenomenon of rib eversion.
3. The posture of holding the baby is incorrect
The posture of holding the baby is not correct. Generally speaking, rib eversion is not closely related to the posture of holding the baby.
However, long-term posture can easily lead to baby's rib eversion. In the orthopedic clinic of the hospital, some babies only have the right valgus. After careful inquiry, it turns out that parents are used to holding their babies with their right hands, and the baby's left rib is close to adults, which is more "obedient" and there is something wrong with the right side.
4, the belt is too tight, compressing the ribs for a long time.
The thoracic development of infants is relatively slow. Babies of this age are often "big bellies". After drinking milk, flatulence and wearing tight pants can easily lead to rib eversion.

If it is a simple rib deformity or valgus caused by external force, it is otherwise healthy and has no effect on the child's physical development, but it is not beautiful. You can recover when you grow up. If rickets, that is, calcium deficiency, will have an impact on the baby's bones, growth and development.
Correction method of rib eversion;
First of all, the mother must take the baby to the hospital to find out the cause of the baby's rib eversion, prescribe the right medicine, and then nurse and correct it.
Supplement calcium and vitamin d
The eversion of ribs caused by rickets should be decided by the doctor. Taking your baby to bask in the sun also helps to supplement calcium.
Touch the baby regularly every day.
Specific methods: from the baby's sternum to the lower abdomen, above the navel, along the ribs, divide water with the palms of both hands, gently touch the baby's body, and be careful not to use too much force. Stick to it two or three times a day for about five minutes each time, which can effectively correct the phenomenon of rib eversion.
Change the posture of holding the baby
Change your posture consciously, not always in the same posture. For 4-6 months, use the baby's face-to-face posture, because the child's back rests on the adult, the back is supported, and there is a hand rest or a hand hug in front, so that a certain part of the child will not bear particularly great force, and it is not easy to cause skeletal deformity.
Take the baby to do corrective exercise.
Encourage children to do some corrective exercises that help to expand their breasts and enhance their respiratory function. Jogging helps to enhance visceral activity, expand breathing ability and improve thoracic dysplasia.
