Does cycling really affect children's spinal development?
Generally speaking, children riding mountain bikes for a long time can easily lead to hunchback. Because children's bones are very plastic, riding mountain bikes often can easily lead to children's spine bending, thus causing hunchback symptoms. However, in general, children don't ride bicycles all day. Generally speaking, as long as it is normal, riding a bicycle in moderation every day will not lead to hunchback symptoms, and patients are advised not to worry too much. Cycling is not harmful to the baby's bone development. Although the young baby's bones are in the growth and development period, the child's body has a self-protection mechanism, so exercise will not cause harm to the child, but exercise can enhance the strength of the baby's bones. Let the baby develop the habit of exercise, which is very helpful for weight control and can also reduce the risk of adult degenerative arthritis.

Pay attention to the baby's bone development.

Children's bones are hard and elastic and not easy to break, but they are easy to bend and deform because of their hardness and elasticity. If the child's posture is not good, or sports activities and labor are overloaded, the bones are easily deformed.

With these habits, beware of skeletal dysplasia.

We have always advocated that parents and children sleep in separate beds, because children sleep with their parents and habitually put their heads close to adults. This sleeping position will lead to habitual or postural torticollis (one face is big and the other is small), commonly known as crooked neck. If the child can't sleep alone, it's best for parents to change their sleeping positions frequently when sleeping to avoid the child's head leaning to one side for a long time.

When leading children to walk, you should also pay attention to pulling elbows. Sleeping on a soft mattress without support will cause the baby's spine to deform, because the child has to lie in bed for seven or eight hours, and the mattress without support will cause the baby's spine to deform for a long time.
