Knock knee or genu valgum deformity is usually associated with bone weakness at growing age. The treatment depends on the severity of the deformity.

If it is minimal, you can apply a brace for support.. if it is significant, you can get one Scanogram I.e. full lower limb x ray. In severe cases, surgery may be required..
