I'm 16 and have bow legs with an O shape curvature is there any way to straighten them without surgery I'm really worried about how they look and if it can be fixed naturally
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
While you may not be able to "fix" the bone structure of your legs naturally at age 16, you can improve muscle strength, flexibility, and overall alignment, which can make your legs appear straighter and reduce associated pain. Exercises, stretching, and potentially bracing can help manage the condition and improve your overall well-being

View allMy left elbow was fractured when I was a kid but didn't heal properly, so now my arm isn't straight. If I get surgery to fix it, will it look and feel natural? Is surgery a good long-term solution for this?
Yes, surgery can be a good long-term solution for a malunion (incorrectly healed) elbow fracture. The goal is to realign the bone and improve function. While surgery can significantly improve the look and feel of your elbow, it's unlikely to be completely natural, and some limitations in range of motion or strength are possible

Here's a rephrased version that meets your criteria: *I just got my x-ray results showing a broken bone. Is surgery the only way to fix this or are there other options? Really worried about what comes next.* This keeps it natural, drops formalities, and focuses on the concern without sounding robotic.
It's understandable to be worried when you hear about a broken bone. Surgery isn't always the only option, and many fractures can be treated with less invasive methods. Your doctor will consider the type of fracture, its location, and your overall health when determining the best treatment plan.
