The picture shows a tiny tot seemingly crammed into a plastic tube with his little hands forced up in the air.

It went viral after being posted on social media site Reddit and left viewers concerned, wondering what the poor rosy-cheeked infant was being subjected to.

A former healthcare professional commented that the device was definitely not an instrument of torture.

He said:
