hello
I was wondering...
I have this bow legs condition (varus). most of my life it didn't bother me, apart from esthetically.
although its a pretty mild varus, I feel like my knees are starting to suffer from the imbalance in pressures.
Im in my mid 30s.

what do you know about correction surgery to this condition in regards to lengthening?
does it further complicate the already existing risks of limb lengthening, or perhaps vice versa- maybe if one is already undergoing this surgery, might as well add on the lengthening process?

what do you think?

Correction surgery can only help you.
Lengthening is what causes problems, fixing your bone alignment will help you and make your foot normal without risking arthritis, at least premature.
