I have knock knees and today at the gym i started doing the ball squat and the calve stretch. Felt a huge difference in the way i walked and felt my quads activate dramatically when I squatted. Also realized i was always locking out my knees. Going to put this into practice 3x per week and see what happens.

Starts with your feet, a lot of flat footed people have bad knees.

I would love to see a video on shoes. What to look for; which type of shoe for certain issues. I have flat feet and I have Orthotics and I was told by my PT that I need a neutral pronation shoe. Issues like this to discuss would be helpful. Thank you.

[daniart]

I’m flat footed and I’d appreciate you making a video on good shoe or shoe insert options 😊

[Andrewpp]

Congenital. Born this way. I hate it. I walk funny. Always have.

I had a tibial plateau fracture in my left leg about 12 years ago, and I noticed that the knee on that leg bent inward, but I never thought there was anything I could do. Last November I did the same thing, only worse, to the other leg, and needed surgery. I’m still recovering, and that knee is even worse! It looks awful.

Glute medius is an external rotator of the leg. So strengthen that, by training hip abduction, and the knee values will disappear.

if you're born that way and are considering surgery what is the physical therapy process like afterwards? Have you treated people who have surgically corrected knock knees? if so can you please do a video on the healing / PT process?

I have very bad arthritis knee (both knees, but so much more in the right one) that is knock knee as well. My feet went flat in my 40s. I'm 70 now. I was not aware of my knock knee until I started going to physical therapy. The therapist pointed it out. I asked my knee doctor about it and he said it may have started after the arthritis. I stopped running after 20 years at age 46 because my right knee felt like it might give way. I also swim laps and that kept the knee well for many years, until the pandemic forced the pool to close. 10 months after the pool closed, my knee got so bad and locked in a position where it wouldn't straighten enough to walk (fixed itself overnight, but from then on I have had knee problem and use a cane walking outside on city streets).

My shoe soles wear down on the outside. I have an old pair of custom orthotics that I wear over insoles inside my high-end NB athletic shoes (bought the shoes last week). I am in my 5th month of physical therapy. I got back to swimming in June after 15 months off (because of pandemic restrictions on the health clubs).

My mother had the same knee problem at my age and never went for help except to take pain killers, use a cane, then a walker, then a wheelchair. I'd always heard she had a bowed knee, but I think it was knock knee with arthritis. She never told me she had arthritis and she may not have known. She had pain all over, especially in her back.

I just bought some shoes with a good arch support. My knee pain was gone the first day I wore the shoes.

[mimiescape]

OMG...you guys are hitting it dead on...really appreciate the best physical therapists on the our opinion, of course.
Problem with weak quads...may not be able to raise up from squat.

[andreaharris]

I was born with this condition I hate it because it's so ugly

[cvilleftw]

Could you offer tips for someone who is knock knee but doesn’t have a flat foot. I actually have a supinated ankle so I believe the inner muscles of my leg are weak causing imbalance and to blame for the knock knee
