I inherited bow legs and now at 34, I'm wondering if it's possible to correct them through exercises or if surgery is the only option. Also, I've noticed I never gain muscle mass in my legs, arms, or face while the rest of my body builds up what could be causing that?

I'm dealing with an ACL tear in my left knee, and the MRI report mentions something about an interstitial tear. Could you explain what that means and how it can be treated? Also, I'm wondering how many therapy sessions might be needed. I have the MRI scan if you need more details.
