Will medication treatment correct my bow legs? i have diagnosed osteomalacia. .my age is 30.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
None: You can improve the osteomalacia with a variety of prescription medications after a proper evaluation. The bow legs are based on how gravity has effected your posture with the weak bones. Any improvement would require evaluation/treatment by an orthopedic surgeon. Your best bet now is to fix the bone issue so it does not get worse.
