Older children with O-shaped or X-shaped legs, clinically known as knee inversion or knee valgus, need to be corrected, through walking posture adjustment, the use of medical equipment, a reasonable diet, surgery and other ways. 1. Walking posture: When the child walks, try to look straight ahead, if there is an inversion, it needs to be corrected in time. 2. Medical devices: If your child’s leg shape is abnormal, you need to consult a physician to assess whether you need to correct the shape of your legs with the help of braces, orthopedic belts, medical shoes, and so on. 3.
