Guide and suggestion: You can perform ultrasound examination of the hip joint or take a film to clarify the correspondence between the femoral head and the acetabulum. If the correspondence is good, continue to observe. If the correspondence is not good, it needs to be treated according to hip dysplasia. Perform brace fixation or surgical treatment.
