I think i have bowed legs
Its been 3 years since my family moved in a flat at 4th floor ... I always use stairs .... always run down the stairs ... Its been few week since I noticed that my legs just below my knees were little bent ... I ignored ... Yesterday I found on internet about bowed legs ... I think I didn't have them before and think they have something to do with my jumping from hights and always running down the stairs ... I think the impact has slowly made my legs bowed ... My condition is not extreme ... I'm 18 ... I think I'm past any help ... BUT ANY HELP WILL BE APPRECIATIATED ... Anyway my dream of being in army is crushed 😕😕😑😞😞
you are having mild tibia vara. You won't be considered for army only if the distance between your femoral condyles is more than 10 cms. You are not having such severe deformity. If you are not having any pain or limitation of your activity you can try for the army. Ofcourse there are many surgeries to correct the deformity even now, but they are indicated only if you are having any limitation of activity.
