English term or phrase: favoring (the catheterized leg(s))
“Your child seems to be favoring the catheterized leg(s)”

是小儿心脏导管插入术后需要注意的事项之一。
“favor"是指什么?爱挠插了管的腿?单只翻译成”喜好“中文会太不清楚。

谢谢!

喜欢将体重放在插了导管的腿
Explanation:
perhaps it meant to say that when the child is standing, he favors putting his body weight on the catheterized leg just as we normally favor one leg over the other when we stand.

my further thought about the term...

since this is post-catheterization care & 小儿心脏导管插入术后需要注意的事项之一 ==> favoring must meant 'like' to use the catheterized leg, therefore, parents need to take special attention in case unfavavorable incident happens due to frequent weight bearing of the catheterized leg. Plus, the sentence seems to be a comment from hospital staff reminding the parents.
