There are two methods to correct O-leg: surgical correction and non-surgical correction.
As we all know, the process of surgical correction is very painful and the recovery period is very long (100 days), so it is not recommended to correct O-legs in such a cruel way.
The advantage of non-surgical correction of O-leg is that it does not need hospitalization, and it will have obvious effect on the day of correction, which is impossible for surgical correction of O-leg. It is common to have standard O-legs for beautiful legs.
1, adjust the walking posture.
In fact, people in infancy, because the body is not fully developed, are basically "O"-shaped legs, until 4~6 years old, the force line becomes straight. However, due to incorrect walking, sleeping, sitting posture and improper exercise methods, some people have become "O" legs again. For example, football players with "O" legs are ten times higher than the general population.
People with O-legs usually walk in a figure of eight, that is, when walking, their toes are divided outwards. When walking, the legs will exert outward force, and the knee joints will receive outward force. Over time, when standing, the knees will not be able to come together and become O-legs. Therefore, we must first adjust our walking posture and learn to focus on the inside of our legs. A good walking posture should be that the body is upright, the waist is straight, the eyes are looking straight ahead, the arms are relaxed, and the body swings naturally at both sides, the toes protrude slightly outward or straighten forward, and the steps are even.
You may feel awkward at first, and you have a feeling that you can't walk. After a long time, it will be fine naturally.
2. Remember to do the clamping action as soon as you have time.
Whether waiting for the bus, in 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.
3, the binding method should be correct
If your legs and knees are O-shaped legs that rotate outward (it is easy to walk outward), because the degree of bending is more serious. Therefore, in addition to the clamping action, it is best to operate the binding method to correct it.
Prepare an elastic rubber belt or a long cloth belt to evenly wrap your legs to help clamp them.
1) Sit in a chair with your legs together. Tie rubber bands evenly below the knee and above the heel.
2) If the adhesive used is not an elastic rubber band. Before binding, put towels on the inner heel and knee to avoid pain. When binding for the first time, don't be too tight.
3) Stand up after tying, remember to keep your body straight, hold your head high and stand for about 15 minutes. If you feel pain or numbness when standing, you are tied too tightly. At this time, you have to take it apart and tie it back. It's best to tie it twice a day.
4) You can also squat down with your hands on the railing or the back of the chair. The repetitive action of standing is about 15 minutes at a time.
4, squat correction method to exercise the muscles on the inside of the calf. Keep your feet shoulder-width apart, bend your feet slightly, and bend your knees to squat and stand up, instead of squatting completely. Do 2 ~ 4 groups every day, 20 times in a group. Stick to it for a month and you will see the effect.
