    The appearance of the bilateral lower limbs of a normal person should be basically straight, and when the inside of the ankle joints on both sides is brought together, the bilateral knees should also be able to come together. When the distance between the two knees is more than 2 cm, it can be called "O-shaped leg" or "knee varus", and it is commonly known as "lap leg". "O-shaped legs" are common in children aged 2 to 6 years and are characterized by the lower limbs not being straight or bent, the distance between the knees is large when the heels are together, making the lower legs feel too bent, and the feet are inwardly figure-eight when walking.

    Causes: Mild and moderate "O" shaped legs** in neonates and young infants may be related to the position of the fetus flexing the hips and knees in the womb.

    Most of these "O-shaped legs" are mild and can be corrected automatically. ......Babies are prone to falling over their legs.

    A considerable part of the "O-shaped legs" in childhood are the sequelae left after suffering from "rickets" at this stage, which is osteomalacia caused by calcium deficiency, so it is also called "osteomalacia". When these children with "rickets" begin to learn to walk, due to the weight bearing of both lower limbs, the softened bone will gradually deform under the action of force to form "O-shaped legs". ...Children walk early, beware of lap legs.

    Other diseases, such as congenital tibial varus and hypophosphate-resistant D-resistant rickets, can also cause some children to develop "O-shaped legs".

    Focus on prevention: The key to "O-shaped legs" in childhood is prevention. The key to prevention is early, reasonable, and adequate calcium supplementation. ......There are many misunderstandings about calcium supplementation for children.

    First of all, early calcium supplementation is particularly important, and it should be done as early as the mother's pregnancy, which is very important. When the mother is pregnant, the need for calcium increases greatly, and the amount of calcium supplementation must be increased during this period to prevent the baby from suffering from "congenital rickets" after birth. ...Expert Recommendation:

    The best way to supplement calcium.

    Secondly, the principle of reasonable and sufficient calcium supplementation. Calcium supplementation should be carried out under the guidance of a child health care physician or pediatric orthopedic surgeon, and parents should not increase or decrease the amount of calcium supplementation for their babies.

    Prevention and control measures: a) If the baby has mild "O-shaped legs", parents don't need to worry too much! This symptom will basically improve when the baby grows up or when he or she reaches a certain age.

    b) Be careful not to let your baby develop the habit of kneeling with both lower limbs.

    c) Encourage your baby to do more outdoor activities or sports to increase the strength of the muscles in both lower limbs and the absorption of calcium. Most of the young patients are able to return to their normal state after entering elementary school.

    d) Supplement your diet with foods high in calcium, such as seaweed, cheese, green beans, kelp, egg yolks, black sesame seeds, shrimp skins, soybeans, shepherd's cabbage, black fungus, etc. Encourage your baby to spend time in the sun to promote calcium absorption.

    Experts remind: If the baby's "O-shaped leg" deformity is found to be more serious, parents should be alert to the possibility of the baby suffering from low-phosphorus resistant D-resistant rickets, and must go to a children's specialist hospital for treatment. In a small percentage of children, when the "O-shaped leg" deformity is too severe to fully return to normal, it must be corrected with the support of a pediatric orthopedic surgeon.

    Methods include orthopedic shoes, orthotic stents, surgery, etc.

    It is generally related to calcium deficiency.

    Calcium deficiency and genetics are the two bases for the formation of O-shaped legs, but the more direct reason for Natong is still in walking, standing, sitting and some exercises. Walking on figure-of-eight feet, standing in a resting position, wearing high heels for a long time, sitting cross-legged, kneeling, squatting, etc., will give the knee joint outward force, and this force will stretch the lateral collateral ligament of the knee joint, and in the long run, it will lead to relaxation of the lateral collateral ligament of the knee joint.

    1. Pathogenesis.

    Calcium deficiency and genetics are the two bases for the formation of O-shaped legs, but the more direct causes are walking, standing, sitting and some exercises. Walking on figure-of-eight feet, standing in a resting position, wearing high heels for a long time, sitting cross-legged, kneeling, squatting, etc.

    The medial and medial collateral ligament of the knee joint is a stable structure of the medial and medial angle of the knee joint. When the lateral collateral ligament is relaxed, the force of the medial collateral ligament will pull the tibia of the calf and rotate medially, resulting in knee varus.

    2. Disease hazards.

    In a normal knee joint, the pressure is evenly distributed on the articular surface. For people with O-shaped legs, due to the inversion of the knee joint, the body weight is too concentrated on the medial joint surface of the knee joint. Excessive pressure and friction can lead to wear of the cartilage surface on the medial side of the knee joint, collapse of the tibial plateau, and secondary osteoarthritis.

    As you get older, you are prone to joint pain, which affects your normal walking activities.

    There are many reasons for the formation of O-shaped legs, calcium deficiency is one of the very important reasons, if the calcium deficiency is more serious, it may cause insufficient support of long bones, deformation, resulting in O-shaped legs.

    There aren't many natural O-shaped legs. Hereditary blounts disease is a kind of disease, but there are basically no cases in our country, and the O-shaped legs caused by this genetic disease are very serious, and the two legs really form the O-type. This type of O-shaped leg cannot be corrected by conservative methods.

    Most of the O-shaped legs are not born, but due to the acquired walking, movement, standing, sitting posture, etc., the knee joint is deformed, and the femur and tibia form abnormal angles. The reason for this is not in the bones, but in the soft tissues of the joints. For example, when a person walks on a figure-of-eight foot, when walking, the leg has the force to the side, which is equivalent to pushing the knee outward.

    This force will pull the collateral ligament that fixes the thigh bone and calf bone on the outside of the knee joint, and over time, this ligament will relax, and the force of pulling the upper and lower leg bones will be reduced, and the medial ligament will pull the calf to rotate inward, forming an O-shaped leg.

    O-shaped legs not only have an impact on the physical and mental health of patients, but also the occurrence of O-shaped legs has brought a lot of inconvenience to many patients. So what is the reason for the formation of O-shaped legs? The following is an analysis of the reasons for the formation of O-shaped legs by experts.

    The reasons for the formation of O-shaped legs are as follows:

    1. Imbalance factors, due to long-term bad posture or incorrect exertion habits, the imbalance of muscle mechanics that innervates the joints can lead to the displacement of the joints and the formation of knee varus.

    2. Developmental factors, due to malnutrition or intestinal diseases and other reasons during the physical development period, lack of calcium and phosphorus and other nutrients, bone development disorders, bone deformation or articular chondral dysplasia, and changes in knee varus.

    3. O-shaped legs caused by trauma or other diseases. The medial and medial collateral ligament of the knee joint is a stable structure of the medial and lateral angle of the knee joint, which can be adapted to changes in the joint. In general, the medial and lateral collateral ligaments of the knee joint are not the key factors in the formation of O-shaped legs, but in some cases, such as trauma caused by lateral collateral ligament injury, etc., which destroys the stability of the knee joint can also lead to O-shaped legs, which is more common in athletes, and surgical repair of damaged ligaments is generally required.

    People with O-shaped legs, when standing and walking, usually use the outer muscles of the legs, and the inner side does not use force. As a result, the leg muscles are not evenly developed, often with more lateral muscles and fewer medial muscles. In this way, the contour line of the leg muscles formed is curved, giving the impression that the bones are bent.

    In fact, not all of them are bent bones, only a few are really bent bones.

    The above is an introduction to the reasons for the formation of O-shaped legs, do you have any understanding?

    Most of the O-legs are not born by nature, but are acquired by walking, exercising, standing, and sitting.

    Dao good habits, back.

    For example, walking in a figure of eight, one leg rests for a while.

    Posture standing, cross-legged sitting, kneeling, stilting legs, or some sports, such as football, martial arts, table tennis, etc., make the knee joint deformed, and the upper and lower leg bones (femur and tibia) form abnormal angles. The reason for this is not in the bone, but in the group of soft tissue ligaments that pull and hold the knee joint.

    Specifically, when a person walks on a figure-of-eight foot, the leg has the force to use sideways when walking, which is equivalent to pushing the knee joint outward. This force will pull the collateral ligament that fixes the thigh bone and calf bone on the outside of the knee joint, and over time, the lateral ligament of the knee joint will relax, and the force of the calf bone will be reduced, and the medial ligament will pull the calf to rotate inward, forming an O-shaped leg.

    The medial and lateral collateral ligaments of the human knee joint are the main stable structures on the inner and outer sides of the knee joint. When the lateral ligament is loose, the knee rotates internally. The human ligament group has strong plasticity and memory.

    Correction is to relax the medial collateral ligament of the knee joint, strengthen and contract the lateral collateral ligament group, and use the lateral ligament to pull the calf bone to rotate the knee joint, so as to achieve the purpose of correction.

    The positive O-meter is scientifically designed based on the root cause of the formation of the O-shaped leg, and adjusts the ligament group of the knee joint through scientific physical traction and extrusion. The undesirable varus angle of the knee joint is eliminated by the action of ligaments. Scientific and effective, easy to adhere to.

    O-shaped leg is generally caused by daily living habits, its formation is caused by the tension of the ligament on the inner side of the knee joint relative to the outer ligament, because the inner ligament is more tense, so it will pull the calf bone inward has a rotation angle, when standing, the calf is inclined to the ground, it does not look straight, and if we sit on the chair, the legs are together, the thigh and the calf are at an angle of 90 degrees, at this time we will feel that the calf is much straighter, This shows that there is no problem with such a leg type bone, otherwise it is impossible to say that the bent bones become straight when sitting, so if there is such a situation, it can be restored to normal through correction, because the ligaments of our knee joint are very plastic, and now the electronic instrument that can effectively correct the O-shaped leg is now available.

    The situation of O-shaped legs is accompanied by muscle valgus, this is because the formation of O-shaped legs is caused by the tension of the ligaments on the inner side of the knee joint relative to the ligaments on the outside, because the ligaments on the inner side are more tense, the thigh bone and the lower leg bone form an abnormal angle at the knee joint, because of this angle, the weight-bearing line of our body is moved inward, when walking, the outer side is more forceful, the inner side is forceless, so in order to maintain balance, it is easy to form the outer figure-of-eight, and the muscles are also more on the outsideWith the correction of the leg shape and the recovery of the load-bearing line, it can be slowly corrected to the normal situation.

    O-leg is mainly divided into pathological and physiological leg shapes. The pathological causes of BAI include deformity, rickets and other causes, and this type of leg DAO type is rare.

    The other is pathological, that is, acquired. There are many reasons for this, but the most common ones are walking, standing on one leg, and some sports, such as martial arts, basketball, football, etc., which will have a lateral impact on your knee joint, which can easily lead to the relaxation of the lateral ligament and the formation of an O-shaped leg.

    It should be mentioned that the development of O-shaped legs will gradually worsen, and there are many elderly people around them, and their legs are almost in a circle, which is definitely not like this at the beginning, but gradually aggravated.

    The correction of O-shaped legs can be corrected by physical methods, and at present, in Japan and South Korea, these O-shaped legs are high-incidence countries, and the physical method of correction of orthodontic instruments is relatively mature, and there are now orthodontic instruments in China.

    Relax and stand up.

    Stand, feet together, the body is naturally relaxed, if there is a gap between the knees, it is an O-shaped leg. The O-leg is mainly caused by the incorrect angle of the upper and lower leg bones in the knee joint, and this angle is mainly caused by the abnormal tension of the medial and external ligaments of the knee joint. People with O-leg legs have tight medial ligaments and loose lateral ligaments.

    And many netizens feel that their bones are bent, which is actually a misunderstanding. Nowadays, the use of positive O-meter physical correction of O-leg is the most effective and scientific non-surgical method.

    O-shaped legs are divided into congenital factors and acquired factors, and congenital factors are mainly caused by hereditary and infantile diseases, and most of them belong to osteopathic O-shaped legs. The most common acquired factors are caused by bad lifestyle habits and posture, and most of them belong to O-shaped legs with soft tissue imbalance. The second is the quasi-genetic factor, the parents have O-shaped legs, and the child is learning to walk and imitate behaviors, which will also lead to O-shaped legs, which also belong to the soft tissue imbalance O-shaped legs.

    Therefore, before any ** correction, you should first figure out what causes your O-shaped legs, and don't blindly believe that a certain way can change all problems.

    In terms of the causes of the formation of O-shaped legs, many people have misunderstandings, thinking that how can the bones of O-shaped legs be cured? But in fact, most of the O-shaped legs are indeed there since childhood, and the calves are quite curved visually, but most of them are not bent in the calf bones, but the bones are misaligned and lose their normal position.

    The key to correcting leg shape is to restore the normal alignment of the lower limbs, that is, to return the bones to their normal position.

    Cui Qingguo uses "minimally invasive orthopedic needle knife" **O-shaped leg or X-shaped leg.

    How do you get the bones back to their normal position? Most of the people who suffer from leg shape problems are not only the shape of the legs, that is, you need to correct more than just the legs. Here's an example:

    A recent patient with O-leg was present. In front of **, she is not only a problem of O-shaped legs, but also a posture problem with: high and low shoulders, knee inversion, neck probing, hunchback, pelvic forward tilt, and knee hyperextension.

    Find the precise location of the lesion, release the imbalanced soft tissue, and then perform physical exercises. In just 6 days, the posture problem improved and the leg shape also improved.

    Understanding the principle of mechanical balance of the human body shows that when you have a problem in one part of your body, other parts of your body will change accordingly in order to maintain balance. Therefore, correcting O-shaped legs is not only about treating the legs, but about the whole thing.
