Bowed legs in a toddler is very common. When a child with bowed legs stands with his or her feet together, there is a distinct space between the lower legs and knees. This may be a result of either one or both, of the legs curving outward. Walking often exaggerates this bowed appearance. In most cases, bowed legs will naturally begin to straighten as the child grows. If bowed legs have not resolved by the age of 3 years, there may be an underlying cause, such as Blount’s disease or rickets. Adolescents occasionally have bowed legs. In many of these cases, the child is significantly overweight. Blount's disease is a condition that can occur in toddlers, as well as in adolescents. It results from an abnormality of the growth plate in the upper part of the shinbone (tibia). Growth plates are located at the ends of a child's long bones. They help determine the length and shape of the adult bone.
