Sachit Malhan I say inform police and child care organization first and then look for cause. I think it is child abuse.!!

Sachit Malhan Yes two fractures at different stages. And dislocation of knee makes it too confirming not to believe it is not child abuse.

Chandio Shuaib No h/o trauma . Hyper mobility of all joints of hands and feet . While contractures of elbows shoulders and knee and hip. H/o previous fractures. Her sister also have same problem. With costochondral jonctions prominent

Vikas Mehra Other than deformities and malinunion of fracture femur,there appears to be dislocation of knee and looks like Cong dislocation of knee which needs to be addressed at the outset of treatment

Sachit Malhan Six month babies are hyper mobile only as their ligaments are still lax and muscles are developing. Not to sound paranoia but is it possible sister too suffered same past. Do any of his parents, grand parents had any congenital deformity kind of problem. If yes try investigating according to that cause otherwise battered baby.
