Knock knee or genu valgum is a misalignment of the legs that causes the knees to bend inward. The condition is apparent in kids but usually corrects itself, as they grow up. However, some adults may also develop the disorder due to an injured knee, obesity, lack of vitamin d and calciumarthritis in the knee.
Surgery is only required for the condition if other treatments do not work and the condition is severe. 

In case you have a concern or query you can always consult a specialist & get answers to your questions!
