to ensure the safety and wellbeing of our children. However, there is one common parenting practice that experts are warning can actually lead to a painful and concerning injury - picking up children by the arms.</p><p>Known as "nursemaid's elbow", this injury happens when the child's elbow partially dislocates from the joint. It's an unfortunately common injury, with research indicating an annual incidence of 2.7 to 4.3 cases per 1,000 children.</p><div id="ad-vip-article"><div id="div-gpt-ad-vip"></div></div><div id="mantis-recommender-top-placeholder"></div><p>The reason it occurs so frequently is due to the anatomy of a child's elbow joint. At a young age, the ligaments and bones are still developing, making the elbow joint more prone to subluxation, or partial dislocation.</p><p>Picking up a child by grabbing their arms is one of the leading causes of nursemaid's elbow, as the sudden pull on the arm can cause the ligament to slip out of place. Other common culprits include swinging a child by the arms, pulling on their hands, and even tugging on their wrists.</p><p>"Nursemaid's elbow is a very common pediatric injury that I see regularly in my practice," says Dr. Jennifer Lang, a pediatric orthopedist at Stanford Children's Health. "It usually happens when the child's elbow gets pulled or twisted, such as when a parent lifts them up by the arms."</p><div id="taboola-ad"></div></div><div class="text-description dont-miss"><p> <strong> Don't miss... </strong> <strong> <a data-link-tracking="InArticle|Link" href="/news/uk/1882586/ill-school-expert-advice-child" onclick="ExpressApp.GoogleAnalytics.TrackEvent('Dont Miss - link', '/news/uk/1882586/ill-school-expert-advice-child')"> Support to help you identify the signs that your child is well enough for school </a> [LATEST] </strong></p></div><div class="text-description"><p>Symptoms of nursemaid's elbow include immediate pain in the elbow, the child refusing to move or use the affected arm, and sometimes visible swelling or bruising. While it's not a serious injury and can usually be corrected quickly by a doctor or nurse, it's still an incredibly unpleasant experience for a young child.</p><div id="ovp-primis" class="ovp-primis-h251"> <script>const loadOvpScript=()=>{let el=document.createElement('script');el.setAttribute('src','https://live.primis.tech/live/liveView.php?s=118222&playerApiId=v118222');document.getElementById('ovp-primis').appendChild(el)};window.top.addEventListener('primisPlayerInit',e=>{try{if(e.detail&&e.detail.playerApiId==="v118222"){if(window.document.getElementsByClassName('jwplayer')[0]){e.detail.float('disable')}}}catch(e){}});window.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded',()=>{setTimeout(()=>{if(typeof flagTcfLoaded!=='undefined'&&flagTcfLoaded===!0){loadOvpScript();ExpressApp.Log('[Load] OVP flagTcfLoaded',new Date())}else{document.addEventListener("tcfLoaded",()=>{loadOvpScript();ExpressApp.Log('[Load] OVP tcfLoaded',new Date())})}},1500)})</script> </div><p>"A child's elbow joint is simply more unstable than an adult's," explains Dr. Evan Jeffries, a pediatric emergency medicine specialist at Lurie Children's Hospital of Chicago. "Suddenly pulling on their arm can cause the ligament to slip out of place and the joint to become subluxated."</p><p>Additionally, if a child does suffer a suspected case of nursemaid's elbow, it's crucial to seek medical attention right away. A doctor can gently manipulate the joint back into place, providing fast relief for the child.</p></div><div class="text-description dont-miss"><p> <strong> READ MORE: </strong> <br> <strong> <a data-link-tracking="InArticle|Link" href="/life-style/health/1920709/mum-sunscreen-hack-makeup-brush" onclick="ExpressApp.GoogleAnalytics.TrackEvent('Dont Miss - link', '/life-style/health/1920709/mum-sunscreen-hack-makeup-brush')"> Mum's simple sunscreen step that keeps kids safe in the sun </a> [WARNING] </strong> <br> <strong> <a data-link-tracking="InArticle|Link" href="/life-style/health/1917642/obese-fat-children-dads-fish-oil" onclick="ExpressApp.GoogleAnalytics.TrackEvent(' Dont Miss - link', '/life-style/health/1917642/obese-fat-children-dads-fish-oil')"> Diet change by dads can cut obesity risk in kids says controversial study </a> [STUDY] </strong> <br> <strong> <a data-link-tracking="InArticle|Link" href="/life-style/health/1923710/travel-expert-reveals-simple-spoon-hot-water-trick-instantly-stop-mosquito-bite-itch" onclick="ExpressApp.GoogleAnalytics.TrackEvent(' Dont Miss - link', '/life-style/health/1923710/travel-expert-reveals-simple-spoon-hot-water-trick-instantly-stop-mosquito-bite-itch')"> Travel expert's quick and easy 'spoon' method to stop mosquito bites itching </a> [ADVICE] </strong></p></div><div class="box two-related-articles clear top-articles-container" data-lazy-function="toparticles"> <header><h3>Trending</h3> </header><ul class="top-articles"></ul></div> <script>window.topArticlesScript="https://cdn.images.express.co.uk/js/dist/article-top-articles20241210.min.js"</script> <div id="newsletter-place"></div><div class="newsletter-pure" style="background: rgba(125, 0, 70, 1); border-color: rgba(125, 0, 70, 1);"><div class="i lazy-bckg" title="Sign up for FREE health tips to live a long and happy life"></div><div class="t cc" style="border-color: rgba(125, 0, 70, 1);"><div> <input placeholder="Enter your email address here" type="email" name="emailAddress" data-pure360="11"> <button data-nfsubmit>SUBSCRIBE</button> <span class="l"></span> <span class="error">Invalid email</span></div><p>We use your sign-up to provide content in ways you've consented to and to improve our understanding of you.

"Instead of grabbing under the arms, parents should pick up their child by supporting their back and bottom. This distributes the weight more evenly and avoids putting strain on the elbow joint."</p><p>According to the research, the lifetime risk of experiencing a nursemaid's elbow is around 3-4% in young children. While not as common as the earlier statistic suggested, it's still a significant risk that parents should be aware of.</p><div id="mantis-recommender-placeholder"></div><p>"As a parent, your natural instinct is to quickly scoop up your child when they need you," says Dr. Jeffries. "But with a little mindfulness, you can keep them safe from this painful, yet preventable, injury."</p><p>So next time you go to scoop up your little one, remember - the arms are not the way to go. With a bit of mindfulness, you can keep your child safe from this common, but avoidable, injury.</p></div></div></div> </article><div class="article-elements"><div class="box related-articles clear">
