Yes, there is no age limit for corrective surgery for knock knees. The surgical technique used may vary depending on age. Adults can benefit from osteotomy surgery on the knee to obtain a correction. Older patients with arthritis will often receive a knee replacement to treat both problems with great success. For most people with genu valgum, exercise can help realign and stabilize their knees. Your doctor or physical therapist can evaluate your gait and suggest exercises designed to strengthen your leg, hip, and thigh muscles. Specific stretches may also be useful in relieving symptoms.
