Can in-toeing gait be hereditary?

Asked 3 years ago

Hi, I had an in-toeing gait when I was younger, and I'm wondering if it's something that runs in the family. I've also noticed that my child seems to have a similar gait, so I'm wondering if it's something I should be concerned about or just a genetic trait. Can anyone shed some light on this? TYIA
