Congenital Bone Deformities
Case Definition
What are Congenital Bone Deformities?
Congenital bone deformities are problems present at birth that may affect the limbs, spine, or joints, sometimes leading to difficulties in movement or visible abnormalities in shape.
Symptoms:
- Visible deformity in the shape of bones or limbs
- Difficulty walking or moving in some cases
- Pain or weakness in muscles surrounding the joint or bones
Causes:
- Genetic factors
- Problems during fetal development in the womb
- Certain environmental factors during pregnancy, such as poor nutrition or exposure to harmful substances
Treatment:
- Physical therapy to strengthen muscles and improve movement
- Use of braces or supports to correct bone alignment
- Surgical intervention in severe cases or when conservative treatment is ineffective
Doctor’s Advice:
Early diagnosis helps correct deformities, improve mobility, and reduce the need for later surgical intervention.
