Is there any way to reduce my carrying angle from 20 to 15 degrees without surgery? I have it in both hands and was wondering if specific exercises could help or if surgery is the only option to fix it
Yes, it's possible to reduce an excessive carrying angle (cubitus valgus) from 20 to 15 degrees without surgery, and exercises can be helpful. While surgery may be an option in some cases, yoga and physical therapy exercises can be effective in strengthening the muscles and potentially reducing the angle.
