[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son’s orthopedist is recommending knock-knee surgery for him while he’s going through his growth spurt. Basically, they insert something into the growth plate that inhibits the growth on the short side; then pull it a few months later when the imbalance has been corrected. I have never heard of this before and am wondering if anyone has any experience. Or also experiences as a knock knees adult? Son expected to be 6’+ so they say that’s a factor. [/quote] I was about to post exactly this - I have never heard of this and don't know anyone who has done it and my doctor wants my ten year old daughter to do it next week (ahh! I need to research!) If anyone has experience with pros/cons - or if you OP went through with it - I would love to hear about it. [/quote]
