Knock Kneed?!

Question: Knock Kneed!?

Hi, i am about 13 1/2 years old and 6 foot 4 1/8 inches tall but i am very knocked kneed!. I am a star basketball player but sometimes my knees hurt so bad its almost impossible to play and recently it has stretched to my left foot and the doctor said it was something called "steevers disease" and i am wondering about a treatment for it!. I was looking online and it said that i should have outgrown it by 7!. Also it said that a minor case of knock knees ( genu valgum) is 10 inches apart from ankle to ankle and mine are 21 inches!. Just any help and i will be gratefulWww@Answer-Health@Com

Answers:

You should have your condition treated!. There is a minimally invasive procedure you can have if you are still growing (according to x-rays)!. It is used for bowlegs as well as knock-knees!.
