Hi there,
DS is almost 2, probably about a year ago when he started walking DH brought up the fact that genu valgum runs in his family and we should get DS looked at. I said let’s wait and see if it becomes a problem. DS doesn’t appear to have any issues at all with his movements but his legs do look a bit knock kneed. DH thinks It’s best to be proactive and get him an appointment with a podiatrist or similar now before a problem occurs, I feel there may be no need to poke or prod DS around so why would we, although I suppose it couldn’t hurt to see a specialist just in case.
has anyone got any experience with this with a young child? Many thanks
