What is Varus deformity?

Varus deformity is the deformity of bone or joint in which the distal end bends in. The distal end is the farthest from the connection point; For example, the distal end of the femur is an end that connects to the knee because the thigh connection point is in the pan. Varus deformity may occur in a number of bones and joints in the body and may differ in severity, generally deteriorating if they are not treated. In the opposite situation, the deformity of the valgus begins to bend the distal end of the joint. For example, in Cubitus Varus, including the elbow, the elbow would turn to the body. A real valgum, including a knee, creates a bowlegated look over time. Another common form of Varus deformity is Taliipes Varus, which occurs in the ankle.

Many things can lead to Varus deformity. There are congenital malformations that are evident at birth. Others are caused by a trauma, such as tension, poorly healed break and poor posture. Over time, the Varus deformities may lead to serious problems such asStress of accompanying joints, taps, shortening limbs and pain. The patient may also feel uncomfortable in social situations because the deformity becomes more significant.

Treatment of Varus deformity begins with a patient assessment that may include a physical test and study of medical imaging. During evaluation, the doctor determines the cause of the deformity and creates a treatment plan. These deformities often require the attention of an orthopedic surgeon who can repair the deformity and apply a cast that will hold the bones or joint in place while recovering. After the operation, it includes tracking several meetings to confirm that the operation has been a successful atoto of the right recovery.

Varus deformities can be particularly common in athletes and dancers. Varus's leg deformity or knee may be a common problem because legs and knees have a large tension. Because athletes and dancers are often encouraged to make pThey rusted physical pain and ignored minor symptoms of physical anxiety, they can worsen their varus deformities by not getting attention in time. A visit to an orthopedic physician is definitely fine if signs of abnormalities of bones and joints appear.
