One of the characteristics of children who come to the hospital with inner thigh walking is that they cross their legs and fall from an early age. And not only in childhood, but also at the age of 10~12 years old it is not uncommon for children to cross their legs and fall. Why is that? Of course, this is partly due to the fact that there is less outdoor play and the sense of balance and somatic sensation is dulling, but in the first place, even in parks and other places, playground equipment that is a little difficult to balance and likely to be injured has been removed, and safety is put first. I think that playground equipment that is dangerous to some extent stimulates children's brains and naturally nurtures normal functional neural networks. For children who walk on the inner thigh, we explain three possibilities. (1) Problems with the musculoskeletal system (pelvis, hip, knee, ankle, etc.) (2) Problems with the functional nervous system (left-right balance of the brain, proprioception, somatosensory, etc.) (3) Problems with the combination of (1) and (2) above Recently, I have examined and evaluated many children and believe that inner thigh gait is not a simple musculoskeletal problem, but may be caused by complex problems such as decreased and increased nerve function during the growth process.
