Knee deformities refer to abnormal shapes or alignments of the knee joint, which can affect mobility and overall function. Common types include genu varum (bow-leggedness) and genu valgum (knock-knees). These conditions can arise from various factors, including genetics, injury, or underlying health issues. Treatment for knee deformities often involves physical therapy, braces, or surgery, depending on the severity and underlying cause. Early diagnosis is crucial for effective management, as untreated deformities can lead to joint pain and increased risk of osteoarthritis. Regular check-ups with a healthcare professional can help monitor and address these issues.
