Why My 11month Baby's Feet Turn Blue If She Stand For Sometime?
I have an 11 month old baby girl. She does not crawl or walk. When I help her to stand up with her arms on a sofa or table, after a while her feet start to turn blue. The same thing happens when she sits with her legs folded beneath her. In this case her lower legs and feet turned blue and when I picked her up, her legs turned right red and she started crying in pain. What is the cause of this?

Hi...by what you say I feel that in particular positions her blood supply to the lower part of the legs is being hampered. This can happen in certain rare conditions like arterio venous malformations or arterial malformations.
A colour doppler of the legs is indicated.
