He described her predicament as follows: “I met Beauty in September 2020. She wasn’t feeling very beautiful, by her own admission. She didn’t like the way she looked. And even more pertinent, she was starting to have pain.
Explaining the main cause of bow legs and why people should pay a lot of attention to it, he explained that Blount’s disease – a condition found in children that affects the growth plates around the knee.
The condition slows down or stops the growth plate in the inside of the knee from producing new bone, according to Johns Hopkins Medicine. The growth plate close to the outside of the knee is still growing regularly in the meantime. One or both legs end up looking bowlegged as a result.
Dr. Bolarinwa went on to say that in Africa, the illness is a major risk factor. “Being African is actually a risk factor,” he said.
He shared the pictures of Beauty and said he was happy to see her smiling because she was now proud of her appearance.
One crucial step in fixing the malformation is restoring the joint line, which is frequently disregarded. We must try to make the joint line appear correct in addition to making the leg appear straight. It’s not always simple, of course. Beauty seems lovely once more today,” he remarked.
