However, Quan Jian is not the only one who sells healthy insoles. Many people claim to be able to treat O-legs. Does insole have any medical function? On the other hand, novice parents often worry about whether my child has O-legs or whether it has something to do with using diapers. Some even suggest that the baby's legs can be tied up to correct the leg shape.

To answer these questions, we must first ask: What is an O-leg?
O-leg is what we often say, as opposed to X-leg. The diagnosis method is also very simple: first stand naturally, then heel to heel together, sole to sole together. In this process, if the calves collide with each other before approaching the knees, it is an X-shaped leg, which is clinically called genu valgus; If there is a certain distance between the knees after the calves are close together, it is an O-shaped leg, which is clinically called genu varus.
Orthopedic insoles belong to non-surgical treatment. You can try to simulate an o-leg. After the distance between the knees is pulled apart, the foot will be adjusted accordingly, and the force on the outside of the sole will increase and the inside will decrease. There are two advantages to using supporting insoles. On the one hand, support can improve the stress on the soles of feet and reduce pain. Studies at home and abroad have confirmed this point.
On the other hand, it is traditionally believed that correcting insoles can force the calf to pronate and passively change the development of the lower limbs, which can alleviate the symptoms to some extent. However, to achieve the effect of thorough correction, there is no way to draw a conclusion at present. [3]
In short, whether it is O-leg or other diseases, we must first define it clearly, and it is best to consult professionals; Know the symptoms and pathogenesis, and then judge whether a certain treatment is appropriate; Finally, it is best to find research data at home and abroad, such as safety, long-term effects and so on. It's good to meet these standards, otherwise, no matter how boastful the business is, don't believe it.
