My Daughter Has Bents On Both Legs. Blood Tests Normal. All Activities Normal. Cure For Symptoms?
My daughter has bents on both legs. she is normal in her all blood tests and there is no signs of rickets. i consulted with so many doctors and to be frank nobody advised me any treatment. some doctors are telling that it will be rectified automatically. one doctor from amritha institute of medical sciences advised surgery. she is only 3 years old. Her all activities are normal. she runs, jumps, walks like normal kids. Hope you will advise me at the earliest. I am from kochi. My name is Habeeb Rahman.

Hi, if the deviation is more than 26% you can opt for operation, the divertion will be inwards or out wards. if it 5% or around you need not worry, that is not rectified, but doesn't look ugly. If out ward bend so many will have it and can leave upto !0%, if inward upto 5%.Otherwise also, the adult body will accomodate the dends.
If you are very particular about the bends, you can get it done, but no surgeon can do it upto 100%, so think of it twice. Thank you.
