Genu Valgum, commonly known as "knock-knees," is a condition where a person's knees touch while their feet are apart. This alignment can occur due to various factors, including genetics, growth patterns, or certain medical conditions. It is often observed in children and may improve as they grow, but in some cases, it can persist into adulthood. In adults, Genu Valgum can lead to discomfort and may increase the risk of joint problems, particularly in the knees and hips. Treatment options vary and may include physical therapy, braces, or, in severe cases, surgical intervention to correct the alignment. Regular check-ups with a healthcare provider can help monitor the condition.
