Can I fix my bowed legs at 18 years old?!


Question: Ever since I was little I've run differently (sloppy lol) and have had lots of pain in my ankles. My doctor never made much of this and said I would grow out of it. I haven't, I'm 18 and am wondering if I can still get the surgery without missing out on too much.

I think so. Best thing to do would be to talk to a specialist.

get it now be4 its too late

i would say you are still young enough, it may be very painful though... likely to involve breaking and resetting bones and wearing leg braces.

If they are only stightly distorted and the pain is very mild and occasional a lot of doctors wouldn't recommend this lengthy procedure.

but iot is your decision after all - you are 18.

Ride horses alot? How did that happen? get the surgery b4 its too late
