Knock-knees (genu valgum) - PiedRéseau Rimouski
At PiedRéseau Rimouski, we offer specialized services for individuals dealing with genu valgum, commonly known as knock-knees. This condition, which can be present from childhood, often requires careful assessment and tailored treatment plans to address the unique needs of each patient. Our clinic is dedicated to providing effective solutions to help alleviate the challenges associated with this condition.
Our team of experienced podiatrists is equipped to diagnose and manage genu valgum in both children and adults. We utilize a range of treatments, including foot orthotics designed to restore proper knee alignment and knee strengthening exercises to improve mobility. Early intervention is essential to prevent complications such as joint damage, which can lead to osteoarthritis if left untreated.
In addition to conservative treatment options, our clinic is prepared to refer patients to orthopedic specialists if surgical intervention becomes necessary. We aim to ensure that every patient receives comprehensive care tailored to their specific situation, helping to improve their quality of life and mobility.
The PiedRéseau Rimouski team includes Kathie Bujold, Podiatrist-owner, who oversees all podiatry services, ensuring that patients receive the attention and care they need for their foot health.
