My boy is 17months old and have one leg bow so i consulted an orthopaedic doc and he advised me to make him wear brace for it. After some months i went to another orthopaedic doctor just for second opinion and he advised me not to do anything as it will get corrected naturally till he becomes 4yrs old. Now i am totally confused what to do and what not.
