============================
Knee pain is one of the most-common complaints that I treat in my physical therapy clinic.
One of the most common types of knee pain happens around and under your kneecap and on the inside or outside of your knee. This pain is often caused by faulty mechanics in your feet/ankles and hips that cause your knees to “cave in” to the middle.
So if you’ve noticed your knees “collapse to the inside” either in standing/walking or while squatting/working out, or if they’ve started to cause you pain, it’s important that we get them straightened out as much as possible to treat and prevent any problems from arising.
And that’s exactly what I wanted to share with you today! These are some of the best stretches and exercises you can do at home to eliminate knee pain and fix your genu valgus (knock knee) positioning.
WHAT CAUSES KNOCK KNEES?
Believe it or not, your “knock knee” problem doesn’t actually come from your knees.
Your knee can only bend (flex) and straighten (extend) in one plane of motion. It’s actually your hips and your ankles that tell your knee WHERE to bend in space and they’re typically the cause of your knock knee problem.
If your knees are collapsing together, MOST of the time it’s because of a problem in your feet/ankles, hips, or both!
FIX FOOT AND ANKLE PROBLEMS THAT CAUSE KNOCK KNEES
I actually shot a video recently that will give you the best exercises to improve flat feet and pronation to help improve your lower leg alignment. I highly recommend you look into it as well to give yourself all the best options to experience success.
If you’re interested in that video, you can see it here: • How To Fix Flat Feet W...
FIX HIP PROBLEMS THAT CAUSE KNOCK KNEES
The purpose of this video is to show you some simple stretches and exercises that you can do at home to address hip weakness and hip tightness that cause this gene valgus “knock-knee” position.
Essentially what happens is your hip internal rotators and adductors get tight and pull your knees closer together. Your hip abductors and external rotators get weak and can’t support your legs/knees in a proper position and that’s what causes your knees to buckle together.
So in order to treat knock knees with exercises at home, we need to stretch the tight internal rotators and adductors and strengthen then external rotators and abductors to hold the knee in better alignment.
Here are the best exercises to help you to do that:

i tried it really it's very useful to me thank you so much sir again.
This is exactly what I need!! Thank you! So grateful I found your channel! ❤️🙌🏾
Sir I have knock knees with little bit fat on thighs so it possible that the fat could be burnt with these exercises as well as knock knees correction.
ITS RELLY VARKING OR NOTTT..
@@khusboosingh7894kya apka knock knee shi hua kya age h apki?
I saw many comments asking how often and after how long you should see results, from the Doctor's answers: you should do these exercise *5 TIMES A WEEK* and if you're consistent you should see an improvement *after 10-12 WEEKS* . Hope it helps 🤗
Will the knees go back if I stop doing the stretches
@@iAmTheFoeOfInhumans yes as long you keep good posture
@Marina Silvia Finetti what if a person with healthy legs do these streches
@@pranavreddy817 I guessed they would just have stronger legs, the purpose of the exercise is to train muscles that support the knee 🤔
Personally, I have been getting a lot of inner knee pain due to weak abductors, over-active adductors and general hip instability working as a builder for 17 years.
I actually notice the difference immediately after I do these exercises and a significant reduction in pain. But I agree, it takes weeks to train the right muscles to activate and strengthen. Consistency and correct progression is key in my experience
woah I'm so happy to have found this channel. putting a band around my knees while I squat is a game changer for my form!! can I always use a resistance band or am I supposed to graduate off it?
If you have knock knees and are considering surgery please DONT. It seems like an easy out but it will not fix the problem. This issue is 100% correctable through various exercises. I had pretty bad knock knees most of my life and got rid of them thru exercises. It was a HUGE self conscious thing for me and I now I feel better than ever.
Thanks for sharing!
which exercises did you do? the ones shown in this video?
@@rjuyyy2778 The ones in the video do help but what seems to help me the most was doing a weighted and seated good morning. It opened my hips and made it feel natural to walk with arches in my feet and my knees further apart. I did it with a barbell behind my upper back. The main thing for me was strengthening the arches in my feet before I saw the progress with that “good morning” exercise. When you have knock knees one of the biggest hinderance causing it is flat feel. You can also practice the “primal squat” to progress your hips and feet. Just make sure that your feet aren’t flat and that your forcing the arches in your feet. It will be hard at first because when you have knock knees your whole life you never use these muscles but in about a month I had fully reconstructed arches that felt natural. I know with knock knees it’s easy to think the problem is with the knee but it isn’t. Strong foot arches, hip flexors and abductors are key.
@@logos29 How much days a week?
@@logos29 Is it recommended to do it before a session (specifically lower body)
I used to go to PT and these are the exact exercises they told me to do. I’m starting to see why in my knees.
Doc, I’ve had my fair share of knee issues, you are the ONLY one who has helped. Your various knee pain video are INCREDIBLY helpful. Thank you sir.
You are so kind, Dhruv Patki! I am happy to hear you are improving!
please update, does this exercise help, if yes how much time does it take
Update?
@@Hridoy7-Ralmost all good now! Occasionally some pain from my martial arts training, but this really helped.

Ahh these exercises bring me back to my time in basic training and AIT
This is exactly what I need! Thank you for taking the time to make such an informative video.
My pleasure! I hope it helps!
It's been a year now, did it work?

Thank you for this ❤️ this is really gonna make me feel more confident

Thank you for the content! I sometimes get sharp pain on my lower back when I do the sidelying hip abduction. I can't explain if it's a disc or a nerve. When it's so severe, I can't do a cobra stretch. It doesn't give shooting pain down the legs though like sciatica.
My issues is that when I stand up my knees go slightly inward. It makes me feel self conscious especially when I wear shorts. Thank you for this
Hey any progress with these exercises?
Bro sameeeeee
Fr
hi any progress with this Exercises?
I need to start practising this out. I have serious knock knees, and because of that, i don't no longer wear tight jeans or shorts in public places. I will come back here to confirm improvements after 12 weeks of consistent practice starting from April 1st
mee too broh
Bro what is ur age just asking cuz I’m almost 15 so I want to know that this age is good or not for starting
@@unknownguy4358 don't worry bro im 2 year older then you and im saying from expereince you can start right now its better you start it right now
Remind me when you come back
Let's do this brother ❤
Just after a few minutes I already feel relief in my hip. Thank you!
You're welcome!
No encontraba un video claro en español, hasta que busque en inglés y encontre este video. Muy claro y al punto. Haré los ejercicios gracias. 👍
Good morning Doc, thank you for this video. God bless🙂🙏
You're very welcome, Mercy Ong! I hope they help you! Thanks for commenting.
Bro it's working? please answer
This is helping a lot with knee pain and stiffness, especially on the side where I had the tibia fracture. I feel like I’m walking better, too. I’ve decided to take a picture of my legs once a week, and I’m keeping a journal. Oh, and it’s also helping with some stiffness I’ve had across one side of my foot on the injured side. I’m in a support forum for TPF, and I’m going to share this with them. Thank you!
You are welcome! Great news!
So, 6 months later, what's your progress if I may ask?
@@salmanfarid2001 Honestly not much. I’m back in PT for back pain, and part of that is due to tight quads and hips. That actually is part of the reason I’m still having problems with knee valgus. I really worked hard at this, so it’s frustrating. But, I’m also 70, and I know it takes longer to heal (and get in shape).
@@annewatman677you're 70 years old?
Also any improvements yet, I have this condition and I want to do anything to correct it
@@Mori575 I was really hoping this would help, but honestly, I gave up, and maybe I should have given it more time. Still, I’ve worked hard to “solve” my problem. I did PT, and I have been doing exercises for well over a year now, and nothing. It’s really disappointing. I’ve tried several videos that claim to help correct this condition, and I don’t think they work. My PT said that building up the thigh muscles helps, so I keep working on that. It’s a really difficult muscle to enlarge because it’s so big to begin with. Also, I had a tibia plateau fracture that required surgery, so that has made things even harder. I’m able to do everything I want, but it is frustrating seeing how my knees tend to bend towards each other.
Thanks a lot, very much helpful and life changing 😊❤
You're welcome 😊
Sir , I said thanks to you before, and I want to say it again, I followed your method for neck pain, and it totally changed my life, with pain I faced it very difficult to concentrate on studies and felt lazy most of the time. But now I feel really great, God bless you .....
This totally makes my day, Amal! Thanks so much for sharing with me and may you continue to be blessed with health! 🙏🏼
I got a lot of hope from your words💗🥺
@@toneandtighten please help me , I don't have knock knees but doing gym for years I got big quads and now they both touch so what should I do ?
What machine in the Jim should I use for this
@@toneandtightenI recently noticed this problem and have been trying to fix this for years but none worked. I have been watching you for a long time and you are my last hope.
I feel sucidal
I would strongly recomend everyone trying to do this also look into flat foot exercises, i tried for years to fix my knoc knees with minor improvement, altough less injuries, until i stumbled accross a video from japan about fixng knock knees and false hips by fixng your flat feet.... it was instant improvement. These exercises in combination with flat foot exercises (wich he has as well) are making HUGE difference. I can see my knees straight for the firs time in my life! Atm only whe im consciously holding it, but it gets easier everyday and less bad when relaxed. 😊
Thanks so much for sharing!
Still..how much time does it take
Does it matter? As long as you improved, it's never going to take more than a year.
Xan you tell me which video from japan?
where can i find those exercises for flat feet
Dear Doctor JARED THANK you for those videos. I am at the knee pain category. 77 years old but filling and being good. I am following for a year now a hormonal anti androgen therapy one shot every 3 months. We have decided with my oncologist to follow intermittent scheme and stop it until PSA rises again. After one year I fell that I have lost some muscle mass and this could be one of the causes of my knee pain. I Am planning to follow this routine for a month before going to second step. My question is: Is something that I could do to help myself with this muscle weakness I experience?
Thank you once again Doc Chrys Fountoulis retired veterinarian who has treated many horses feet. Warmest regards from Greece
I've been feeling some discomfort in my knees and it's gradually turning into pain. Thanks for this video, I hope this helps me while I can't go to the doctor.
You are so welcome! I hope it helps!
Thank you so much. I’ve been doing these types of stretches for a long time (each time I go to the gym, so not super consistently) and I have suffered with these knees for my 25 years 😂 but these stretches and exercises have always helped with relief. I’ve been able to get over most of the self consciousness about my knees over time, so now I’m fully focused on doing these just for relief and not cosmetic reasons. It’s a lot easier to stay consistent when you’re doing it for your own health.
so ur knock knees got corrected? and after how much time
???
@@harshalrasaniya5351 No, not corrected. Just relieved. The difference in how they used to look is only slightly noticeable maybe because I was inconsistent. But do these exercises anyway. I’ve been doing exercises like these really ever since I began going to the gym about 12 years ago off and on. I’d do these stretches at home every once in a while too during those years. If you could be consistent on this you may have even better results. But there’s not much out there that will truly correct knock knees to straight legs without medical intervention if you suffer severely. Above all else, you got this either way. Don’t give up. Good luck my friend!
@@waterclosetco okok
So basically these exercises don't correct knock knees?
@@jonfonts4050I’m wondering this too, I think they do but this person said they weren’t consistent with it. Other people in the comments said it corrected their knees though.
Thank you so much work for me, after my knee locked today playing soccer ⚽️
Yeah bro now my knee doesn’t hurt while crossing
I am excited about trying these exercises! I have very bad knock knees since childhood. Always thought it was just how I was built! Anyway...my other issue is high arches in my feet which make my feet supinate and I roll my ankle outward. As a result, I have sprained my ankles quite a few times in my 67 years. What are some exercises that can help with that issue??
Thank you for this video!
Appreciate your efforts, I am 38 and have sedentary lifestyle. Watching your video motivates me. From past 20 years I haven’t gone for jogging and it would be great if you can guide us on to start again.
Yaar
Bro it's working ? Please answer 🙏
I actually have hip problems due to many falling down so due to my bulging disc I do some of these starches but I will definitely add these back my knee suffering due to the hip injury
Thank you sir for giving such wonderful trick 🙏
My pleasure!
omg i have knock knees and the only thing i ever worked on is normalizing my walk but it never worked on knock knees… im on a marathon of you videos but this is such an emotional journey for me
ironically the pain you pointed out are also pains i have felt and i never thought it was due to knock knees… i could cry😭
Did it work
@@loopacatz6385same question here bro , have you tried?
I would love to see this work with someone who actually has their knees in this condition. With someone who doesn't have the problem, demonstrating this is very easy. Do you have any case to show before and after these tips?
Thank you from India ❤
Tysm for sharing the video I've been feeling alot insecure cuz of my knees i hope ill have the same normal leg as b4, Started the exercise today will share the improvement later!
What did happens with your legs?
Hey! Did they improve?
I was searching for this type of video but after long time I got this, When I was walking my right leg knee is moving or leaning inside but after watching this video I hope, I will make it better by Your Exercises. Thanks a lot sir ❤ .
I hope you find these helpful and thanks for commenting!

Anything?

You are welcome! I hope you found it helpful!
I had a tibial plateau fracture that required surgery in early November 2021. I’ve been very vigilant about continuing to do my PT exercises, and I’ve made a lot of progress. However, I’m definitely having trouble with my knee rotating in. In fact, I had a TPF on my other leg about 12 years ago that wasn’t nearly as bad, but I have a similar problem with that knee. It’s also not as bad, but I definitely look knock kneed, and it’s the one thing that really bothers me.
These are all exercises I know I can do, although my range of motion is complete on my injured leg yet. It’s close!!
I’m going to start doing these right away, and I’ll definitely report back. Thank you!
You are welcome and best of luck!
How did it go I just found this video is it worth giving a go
@@tannerwiseman5325 I think it takes a lot longer than people expect. It’s 7 months since I posted, and it doesn’t look any better. However, I’m just finishing up PT for back pain! I discovered that my quads are very tight, and that impacts my hips. Both of those things can contribute to *collapsed knees.* I’m continuing to work on it, but I’m trying some other things for now.
@@annewatman677any progress?
@@MrScofield7 Not really. I was hoping this would help, but it’s not a miracle cure. I will tell you that I’m doing much better overall. I’m using my treadmill on a regular basis, riding, cleaning horse stalls, and doing everything I did before. But I’m still knock kneed. It’s not horrible, and I’ve somewhat gotten used to “the look,” and as long as that’s not holding me back, I can’t really complain.
I’ll also be 72 next month, and I haven’t looked great in shorts even before my injuries!! What’s most important to me is being active.

Hi Dr Jared - just found your video last night and I'm trying it out. I have trouble with the heel touches with my left leg on the stair - one reason is railing is behind me. Any suggestions on a way to get started on that side? i can only lower the right leg an inch or two.
Really thankful for your videos. Got diagnosed with Morton's Neuroma but don't use high heels, usu wear wide and flat shoes, live on farm.... when reading causes... knock kneed since kid with flat feet AND bunions from fourth grade...thought was just inherited from my grandmother. Now I know :-( BUT am hoping that orthotics and your exercises will help build my strength back up. May never be orthotic free but want to try. Wondering what your take on barefoot shoes is? I am hoping to progress and maybe use an orthotic there... curious. Thank you though for the videos! Lynne

Hi there- can you do a video on tight glutes? I have horrible pain from weak and tight glutes.
I love this video and need it:) I’m 67 and lucky to not have pain, want to keep it that way.

Sir please make a vedio on the lordosis exercise as I feels very strange whenever I see myself in the mirror. Or tell me some exercises i should do 🙏
The more I learn about anatomy, the more I'm amazed at how connect every muscle is. I have knock knees, flat feet and tight hips and tight low back as well as tight pelvic floor. Who knew it was all related? 😂
same here, it all stems from the flat feet i guess?
first of all thank you very much! Very helpful. I am a Pilates reformer and yoga instructor and see that many people have weakness in only one leg and a markedly different muscle tone. In such a situation would you recommend stretching and practicing unilaterally? Or just more sets on the weak side?
Great question! Imbalances are typically overcome with more unilateral work. Work each leg/side of the body independently and, with consitency over time, the problem should resolve. Hope that helps and thanks for commenting!

I had some major breakthrough so I thought I’d share!! If anyone is like me and their knees go in when they run, I searched for a long time to try to fix it and did all kinds of exercises. What finally helped me was a chiropractor. Obviously all are not the same but I’ve been going for about four weeks and my knees are already almost to the level of a normal person as well. I’ve searched for so long so I thought this might help someone, everybody isn’t the same though but it’s worth a shot!! Another exercise they gave me was lying on the ground with my legs on a chair or short table at 90 degrees. I do tbis for 20 minutes a day
What specifically did the chiropractor do? Alignment? I made an appointment hoping they can help me. I’m also a runner!
@@katherinebarahona4878 They started by taking x rays and he explained that my pelvis was tilted forward 48 degrees, and the normal amount is 20 degrees. So apparently that’s what was contributing to the problem and I had some other issues such as scoliosis and my head is too far forward. But I go 2-3 times a week and it’s so much better. He has been hitting the spots around I guess my tail bone, knees, hips, pretty much everything in that area to try to get my legs straightened up. For reference I am only 16 years old so it could be different, but it should help a good bit!!
@@katherinebarahona4878any progress?
did u improved?
@@MrScofield7 I thought it was working and maybe it did some but it didn’t fix the problem completely. I would suggest just do hip and glute strengthening exercises.
Thanks
Thanks doc will try this out
Best of luck!
@nikko-kun643 Did it fix your knock knees?
Is this exercise side plank hip dip dangerous for the shoulder? in regards the impingement?
With the Figure 4 Stretch, I cannot bring my left foot up to my right knee. Right foot ti left knee is better. Any suggestions to help with the left foot? I have no problem with exercises, just the stretch. Thank you.
I love your content ❤️❤️, Thank you soo much these video's are really really helpful ❤️❤️
You're so welcome!
Hi thanks a lot ! How should I schedule these exercises with my regular one hour work out routine ?
Bro it's working ? Please answer 🙏
How long should you practice this to feel and see results? 💛⭐️
Hey doc, how long you reckon it should take for me to correct my knees, though I don't have severe knock knees. What is the proposed time?
Thank you so much
You're most welcome!
@tone and tighten will this help me permanently
simply amazing
Glad you think so!
Hi doc. I lean forward when I squat which makes my lower back hurt, any tips to help and what do you think might be causing it? Thank you, I love your videos, very helpful
Hi Haider! Most causes of the forward lean are lack of a hip hinge (make sure your butt goes back first and your weight stays through your heel, not your toes) and limited ankle range of motion. Work on improving your ankle mobility and you should notice a difference! th-cam.com/video/D327Pwt-ONs/w-d-xo.html Hope that helps!
@@toneandtighten Thank you for taking the time to respond, and thank you for being generous with your knowledge, I appreciate you doc.
OMG I have the same problem and I thought it's because of knock knees.
What kind of strengthening is good for this exercise?thanks
1 like : 10 squats challenge lets go
Edit: 20 squats done.
I got left rib flare and noticed also my left inner knee sticks out more than the right .
When I was younger I was playing football and my knee had felt like it popped but nothing too serious but can't remember if it was my right knee or left . I will have to go get checked out for sure because at the moment I have good insurance I need to take advantage of
Is there a difference between having knock knees that are due to structural issues vs muscular? I do not have knee valgus anymore when squatting because I worked on pushing my knees out. However I still have knocked knees. I still cannot stand with my feet together because my knees touch. I don't have pain from having knock knees but I'd like for my body to be able to function normally especially.
Hi I just want your advice on how to stay motivated through this exercise because whenever I wear shorts my legs just look hella ugly. What are some tips to get me through this so my legs can look normal again? God bless you.
I have a mild case of knocked knees and I will try to do these daily to see if they work! Will update later
I hope they help you out!
sooo? has it gotten better?
How long will I have to do these exercises to be have a full recovery of knock knees?
Coach what about correcting passive Valgus…I consciously monitor knee caving inward during movement and sport but just stuck in that position passively and it’s frustrating
Does having knock knees always come with pain? Looking online, my knees do come together and the angle between my calves is not as pronounced. Never had a doctor tell me anything before hand. However, my leg muscles are tight, I'm close to flat footed but not quite, and I do believe I have overpronation.
I realize now I've been doing it wrong and making it worse. I've been using the resistance band but I had it below my knees. I've been doing squats like that for weeks and lately I felt like my knees are getting so bad I can barely walk right, like my balance is off and I walk like I'm drunk. Now I realize after watching this the band has to be ABOVE the knees. 🙈
When you mentioned it's caused by the hip ( and ankle), I never knew that before. thank you
I am glad this helped!
i hope it can be efective for my leg get better
Would cardio on the stair master be counter productive when doing these stretches weekly? A couple years ago I weighed in at about 280lbs, so I assume I developed knocked knees due to my weight. Today, I’m about 200lbs. The goal is no longer to lose weight, but I do like to keep my body fat in check with cardio… the stair master happens to be a fav for cardio, but I often wonder if it’s making things worse.
Hello Doc. What if the knock knees is an after effect of long term immobility due to stroke?
