Bowlegs And Knock-Knees In Children
Dr. Roger Saldana, Pediatric Orthopedic Surgeon with Miami Orthopedics and Sports Medicine Institute at Baptist Children's Hospital, explains a normal alignment has a slightly valgus angulation, the knock-knees have a bigger one.
"You can get to the point where the outside part of your knee, or the lateral part of the knee, starts to get increased stresses," he says and points out as you age, it can progress the early degeneration of the knee with arthritis.
