hi arun kumar! it's too early to say that. keep on massaging his legs as Nita rightly mentioned. also do not try and make him stand as his bones are too weak and any kind of pressure on the knee would make knee joints further weak..

Thanku Ms. Nita and Ms. Shikha, Yes we had started the message from the 5th day itself and it's still being done regularly. We consulted one of the doctor, and as per him he has got slight Knee contracture Flexion with approx 10 degree of deflection. Advised stretch and messaging for 1 month. Next visit after 1 month. Your views and advises please.

please follow yr doc's advise. while massaging be gentle as baby's bones are soft and yet not calcified..

Thanks for the advise My other moto of this post was to see, if anybody else had similar concern and how did they recover. Will there be any problems for him to start walking. Any Gate concerns. Thanks
