A member asked:
I am 16, i have knock knees, a few days ago my ankles started to hurt, it got so bad yesterday that i couldn't even walk properly, do you think this could be happening because of knock knees? is there any way to cure knock knees without surgery?

Biomechanics : Your problem is one of alignment or lack of proper alignment. These are considered “overuse injuries” . I would visit a podiatrist or a Physical therapists knowledgeable in biomechanics. Shoes, shoe inserts and custom orthotics are used in this situation. You are young and still developing. Not uncommon to see.
