Adjust your walking posture: learn to focus on the inside of your legs. A good walking posture should be to stand up straight, belly in, waist straight, eyes straight ahead, arms swinging naturally at both sides of your body, toes slightly straight out or forward, and even steps.
Remember to clip when you are free: whether waiting for the bus, at the office or watching TV, always remember to straighten your legs and clamp your knees hard, 3-5 times a day, about 15 minutes each time. This can not only correct the leg shape, but also have the effect of stovepipe, especially stovepipe.
Bandage correction method: If your legs and knees are O-shaped legs that rotate outward (it is easy to walk in a figure of eight), because the bending degree is serious, it is best to do more binding correction besides clamping movement. Prepare an elastic rubber belt or a long cloth belt to evenly wrap your legs to help clamp them.
Squat correction method: exercise the inner leg muscles, separate your feet shoulder width apart, slightly bend your knees, and do squat and stand up, not squat completely. 20 times a group, 2 ~ 4 groups a day, and you can see the effect after one month.
Corrective insole: Using corrective insole is also a common method. For children with light O-legs and incomplete skeletal development, orthopedic insoles can balance the force lines of lower limbs by padding the outside, thus achieving the purpose of correction.
Surgical correction: for patients with severe O-leg or already complicated with osteoarthritis and joint pain, surgical correction can be considered. Surgical methods include osteotomy and joint replacement. The specific plan needs to be determined according to the specific situation of the patient.
It should be noted that the above methods need some time and patience to see the effect. It is recommended to consult a doctor or professional before starting any new corrective method. At the same time, maintaining a positive attitude and unremitting efforts are also the key to successfully correcting O-legs.
