Modern medicine offers many methods to get rid of the curvature of the legs. However, do not rush to the operation. It is possible that everything is fixable without surgery.
Instructions
Step 1
Go to an orthopedic clinic and find out what is causing the curvature of your legs: congenital bone deformity or muscle failure. And in fact, and in another case, of course, you can immediately prepare for the operation. However, if, nevertheless, the curvature of the legs is not due to deformation of the bones, then it is better to sign up for a gym or yoga courses to correct the situation.
Step 2
Some exercises can be done at home as well. To do this, you only need dumbbells (not for all exercises). Here are just a few of them: - starting position - sitting, legs straightened, support on the back of the arms. Pull the toe of your right foot firmly, then pull it sharply towards you. Repeat with your left foot. During this exercise, the muscles of the lower leg are tense as much as possible, which is required. Repeat the exercise several times; - starting position - standing, socks apart, in the hands of dumbbells. Perform at least 20 squats on toes, without letting go of the dumbbells; - starting position - standing at the support, hold on to the support with one hand, the left leg is on the floor with the toe out, the right leg is raised low above the floor. Perform 20 toe lifts on your left foot. Then switch legs and do 20 more lifts on the toe of your right foot. For the exercise to be more effective, take a dumbbell in your free hand.
Step 3
If your leg curvature is false, but you don't want to spend months and years in the gym, see a plastic surgeon. The method of cruroplasty (tightening of the lower leg muscles and their endoprosthetics with silicone prostheses) can get rid of your deficiency.
Step 4
Only an experienced orthopedic surgeon will help you get rid of the true curvature of the legs. Osteotomy is a very complex operation, during which the bones are broken in a given place, and then reunited and fixed with the help of an apparatus for external osteosynthesis (Ilizarov apparatus).
Step 5
If you decide to have an osteotomy, be prepared for the fact that, although the operation is performed under general anesthesia, almost all the pain of a bone fracture will return to you. You cannot get rid of it with the help of the most powerful painkillers. However, after about a week, the pain will stop and you will be able to walk again. But first, only on crutches and for at least six months (depending on the complexity of the fractures that the surgeon had to make). In addition, after the Ilizarov apparatus, you will have marks on your shins for life, which can only be removed with the help of plastics.
Step 6
Be more confident in yourself, because, after all, the curvature of the legs is not the worst thing that can happen to a person. And if you sincerely smile and do not walk, trying to hide the flaw, but practically fly, stylishly and freely, then no one will notice that something is wrong with you (or with your legs).
