This is not normal. Is there any family history of bone disease or short stature? Are the joints painful or swollen? Please get an X Ray of Knee Joint.
Next Steps
You may give Vitamin D3 drops 400 IU. Alternatively, at 6 months of age you should give solid food containing fat soluble vitamins.
Health Tips
please show pictures of both knees and elbows joints.
