Excellent!!! I grew up sitting in W position, so in every running or exercise that I do my knees turn inside. This video will help me a lot! Thank you!
Hi! I m new to ur channel. Thanks for such clear-cut instructions. Today my doctor told me that I have developed right knee Valgus. I will b starting ur exercises today itself. But I have other problems too.. 1. I m knock kneed 2. I have sciatica pain in the right leg. Can u advice me on a set of exercises to address all above issues please? Thanks in Advance,Poonam
What frequency should people do these exercises if aiming to correct knee valgus causing pain for a 26 year old? Is 2-3 times per week enough? I'm concerned about finding the time to do these super regularly while also going to the gym for the rest of my body.
thanks a lot for all the helpful content of your channel . here I have a question , I had an acl , mcl and md meniscus injury about 9 months ago and unfortunately my knee is going valgus . I wanna know is it okay for me to do these exercises ? cause I haven't got the 100% strength in my muscles.
It’s hard for me to say for sure without knowing more details, but these are exercises we would use with patients who have a history similar to yours. So, in general, they should be safe to perform, but I would recommend testing them individually and seeing how your body responds.
If you don’t have pain and the primary goal is to improve control and alignment, then these would be done 3-4 times per week for the first 3-4 weeks and then could be done 1-2 times once your control has improved.
Can this help straighten my knees? Several years ago I dislocated my patella and I was told I was prone to patellar dislocation because of my genu valgum…
It won’t straighten the knee if the alignment is due to changes in the bone structure. However, these types of exercises can greatly reduce your risk of having another patellar dislocation.
Hi, great video. Do you think knee valgus on the right leg could be caused by a weak glute medius on the left side? It seems my left glute has been weak for years and right knee seems to be going inwards even without bending? Am I broken? 😂
In most cases, a weak gluteus medius on the opposite side wouldn’t cause the other knee to cave in. A week gluteus medius on the opposite side can cause the pelvis to drop on the other side. So, if your left gluteus medius is weak, then the right side of the pelvis would drop when standing on the left leg. In any case, I would practice these exercises on both legs and see if your position and control improves.
Have valgus due to outside meniscus pushed out. Would these strengthening exercises help a tad for keeping my knee and muscles aligned, even though my meniscus is out? Working through this slowly with PT, too young (57...lol) for knee surgery yet. thanks.
Not all cases of knee valgus can be corrected. In some people, this is due to bony alignment, which will not change with exercises. If you were positioning is due to neuromuscular control, then I would allow for 6 to 8 weeks of training to change your movement patterns.
@@RehabSciencehow can we determine if it’s bone alignment or something we can change with exercise? I do track and I have always had my knees collapse inward when landing. Is this something I can fix or is it just something I have to deal with?
Hello Dr. I am not sure what type of Knee Valgus I have. It is either due to poor muscle imbalance (hips, quads, flexors) OR Bone deformity. Do you know How I can tell between the two? Thank you!!
Valgus that is due to bony structure will be present even when standing still. If your legs are straight when standing with your feet together, then the bones are not a problem. Does that make sense?
@@RehabSciencehello! I was looking for this comment! I have this problem. When I stand my legs are normal, but when I walk or run my knees go inward. So I was confused if I have knock knees or not! I went to the doctor and he said that I need surgery which breaks my bones then they will apply Ilizarov apparatus. But as a understand my problem can be solved by doing exercises? Because I have weak muscles like hips abductors, right? I am 29 years old and now I have a hope to walk and run normally.
If your knock knees do not exist when standing still, then you would not be appropriate for surgery. If it only happens when you are moving, then you want to use exercise to strengthen your glute muscles and your foot muscles.@@aigulraiymbek6790
I have bone valgus deformity, on both knees. Will this help alleviate any symptoms at all? As in, lessen the swelling that seems to be constant due to the shape? I'm 54.
It’s hard for me to say without evaluating you and knowing more about your symptoms. The best way to see if they will help is to try them and see how your body responds.
Knee valgus can cause the pelvis to drop and the opposite to shoulder to drop as well. However, the dominant shoulder usually sits lower, so the position may not be related to the knee valgus.
Exercises start from 3:01mints Can u tell me if we do ist exercise by the hlp of other by holding n uplifting my legs 🤔🤔is it okk ? Next exercise start from 4:40mints Last exercise 6:42mints
Sorry, I don’t quite understand. Are you asking if it’s okay to have another person help lift your leg? It’s okay if someone partially helps, but if they lift the entire weight of your leg, then it won’t strengthen your muscles.

Knee valgus is also called knock knees, so these exercises should help with that. For sciatica, I have videos for that issue under my spine playlist.
Excellent! Thank you.

Good stuff

My left knee cap dislocated 1 year ago and the right side of my knee is paining what could be the reason? Is it because of valgas?

Not sure if it's been said or if you mentioned it in the video how often should the exercises be done? Daily or weekly?

@@RehabScience thank you for replying. Ive discovered that it may actually be to do with my right ankle mobility. Starting there, many thanks.

Yes, these will help improve alignment of the femur bone, which will help protect the meniscus.
How many months of time should I do to correct my knock knees?
An average time*?
Not all cases of knee valgus can be corrected. In some people, this is due to bony alignment, which will not change with exercises. If you were positioning is due to neuromuscular control, then I would allow for 6 to 8 weeks of training to change your movement patterns.

Wouldn’t the knees be facing inward when standing still and when running? How would standing make any difference ?

I have knee valgus on my right leg how can this help me to reform my k ee
I have one question..If I have knee valgus in one leg will it cause my opposite side shoulder depression?
Knee valgus can cause the pelvis to drop and the opposite to shoulder to drop as well. However, the dominant shoulder usually sits lower, so the position may not be related to the knee valgus.
Is this band better or can I use the other one line thicker band or it doesn’t matter ?
You’re really just looking for a band that creates muscle fatigue within 10 to 15 repetitions.
Can this disability be above 40 percent
Plzz reply it's important for my exam reservation
Thanks!
You’re welcome!
Ahh, I try to do excerises in standing of gluteus medius, but I have so much weak stability :(((
Sorry to hear you are experiencing weakness. I hope these exercises are helpful to you!
but if i dont have enough dorsiflexion to do the last one?
In that case, I would just work through the range of motion you possess. Knee valgus control will still improve.
