How to correct X leg?
The correction method of X leg is as follows:

Wear X-leg orthosis: You can use it on the bed or sofa in your spare time. Long-term application has a certain effect on correcting leg shape, but the correction effect is slow, which is suitable for slight X-shaped legs.

Use X-leg orthotic insole: You need to buy a pair of shoes one size larger than the normal size, so that the orthotic insole can be put in. You can usually walk or exercise in these shoes, and correct your X-leg by correcting your walking posture.

Exercise correction: It is necessary to carry out targeted leg exercises, strengthen the strength of internal muscle groups, and gradually correct X-shaped legs. For example, the supine leg-clamping method, maintaining supine posture, raising legs together and straightening, slowly opening to both sides, and then slowly closing to increase the strength of the inner muscle group.

Surgical treatment: if the X-shaped leg is very serious, the above methods are not effective after correction, so surgical correction should be considered. The commonly used surgical methods are osteotomy or joint replacement.
