Bow legs, or Genu Varum, is a condition where the legs curve outward at the knees, causing a noticeable gap between them when standing with feet together. While often normal in infants and toddlers, persistent bowing beyond early childhood or in adults can lead to knee pain, joint strain, altered gait, and eventually arthritis if not addressed.
Physiotherapy, under the expert care of Dr. Deepika Bansal, offers a non-surgical route to managing mild to moderate bow legs. At our clinics in Balewadi, Wakad, Aundh, and Pimple Saudagar, treatment focuses on:
πΉ Strengthening exercises for weak hip abductors, quadriceps, and gluteal muscles to improve leg alignment
πΉ Stretching tight muscles, especially hip adductors and hamstrings, that contribute to poor posture
πΉ Gait correction and postural training to reduce stress on the knees and lower back
πΉ Proprioceptive and balance exercises for joint stability
πΉ Customized orthotics if foot mechanics like flat feet worsen the bowing
πΉ Functional movements like squats with proper form, side-steps, and resistance band exercises
In growing children, early intervention can help guide normal bone development. In adults, physiotherapy helps prevent complications and improve mobility.
Consult Dr. Deepika Bansal for a tailored physiotherapy plan to manage and correct bow legs effectively.
