it's important to know the age of your child , some children normally shows slight bowing of lower legs till the age of 4 years then it will correct by its own
if there is any chance we suspect vitamin d deficiency , a vitamin d level in the serum is helpful in diagnosis and follow up .
and if there is vitamin d deficiency the appropriate therapy is giving vitamin D3 drops like Hidee or biodal drops instead of 1-alpha
I hope this helps
