TUYUBAHE Bruno is getting treatment at HVP/Gatagara Orthopedic hospital.
TUYUBAHE Bruno is 3 years old, he was born with normal delivery but in his development his knees are knocking day by day, his family is poor with more difficulties for his treatment.
In support of STC Bruno TUYUBAHE Consulted an orthopedic doctor at specialized hospital for investigation, the results shown that it is Genu vulgum which is a common lower leg abnormality condition that is usually seen in the toddler, preschool and early school age child. In genu valgum, the lower extremities turn inward, causing the appearance of the knees to be touching while the ankles remain apart.
we do advocacy to run our initiatives and our actions started in january 2020 we started with nothing unless the family members efforts and our professional knowledge to carry on these initiatives
Conclusion Normally the treatment of knock knee in children include braces to help bones grow in the correct position. If a gradual correction does not occur, surgery may be recommended. In the growing child, guided-growth minimal-incision surgery may be used to encourage the leg to gradually grow straight. Doctors decided the use braces as the first line of treatment but if it will not work, surgery is recommended. We thank everyone who is supporting our activities.
