Hello there. I can understand your concern. Bones are not aligned is your diagnosis or it's been diagnosed by a orthopedician? The best thing you can do now is consult the same orthopedician in person for further evaluation and management. .he will be able to help you further. . best regards. Dr. Anil Kumar Jain. Bangalore.
