They are an inwards position of the knees when a child is standing. It results in both knees coming in contact with each other, hence the name \u2018knock\u2019 knees.<\/p><p>When knock knees first arise, it is normal to think it may be debilitating and painful for a child. However, it is important to understand that in most cases, knocks knees are a common occurrence that arise as a child learns how to walk. It is therefore important to understand the milestones that a child is expected to reach when learning to walk.<\/p><p>As a child first learns to walk around 12 \u2013 18 months, their muscle strength and balance will be weak. In most cases, a child\u2019s feet will have the appearance of a flat foot and their pelvis will be in a forward \u2013 tilted position. Collectively, this contributes to development of knock knees.<\/p><p>At approximately the ages of 4 \u2013 5 it is expected that a child\u2019s knees slowly become straighter from a knock knees position. This is a normal part of a child\u2019s gait development that occurs when a child\u2019s lower limb begins to gain strength and balance. As a part of the gait development milestone, it is then expected that a child maintains this approximately up to the age of 7, where it is normal to see slight development of the arch of a foot and the pelvis be in a less of a forward \u2013 tilted position.<\/p><p>In understanding how gait develops as a child learns to walk, any observations that occur beyond these milestones may be seen as abnormal. However, it is important to understand that there is no exact \u2018normal\u2019 measure and that every child is different. Besides this, there are few observations that may influence whether treatment may be helpful:<\/p><ul><li>A child experiences frequent falls beyond what is normal.<\/li><li>The appearance of knock knees continues beyond the age of 6 \u2013 7, often coupled with the presence of a flat foot.<\/li><li>A child complaining of consistent pain in the foot, knees or hips.<\/li><li>Limitations to a child\u2019s normal daily activities.<\/li><\/ul><p>Knock knees often do not require any intervention as they are part of the development of a child\u2019s gait and often reduce as a child gets older. If you are concerned about your child\u2019s knees or feet, begin to note these observations from an early age. For example, take a photo of your child\u2019s knees while standing and record them walking, then compare these 6 months later.<\/p><p>If you feel uncertain or confused about your child\u2019s knees, let the team at SOLE \u2013 LUTION PODIATRY help you.
