Turned Knees, Unable To Stand For Too Long And Dull Pains. Which Doctor To Consult?
Hello, I have very turned in knees and it appears I may have Miserable Malalignment from my Googling, yes another self-diagnoser, sorry! Who would I see about this, an Osteopath, Physio? I don t get much pain, just a little bit when I am on my feet all day or walk a fair way. It just feels quite uncomfortable and I don t want bigger issues down the track like osteo arthritis . Thankyou Karina

Hello,
thanks for using health care magic
You could meet a general practitioner for an initial
assessment before embarking on meeting a specialist.
Following the outcome with the general practitioner, if it's
a condition that warrants specialist attention, he will refer
to him.
However, if you wish to meet a specialist directly, you could
meet an orthopedist.
Best regards
Dr Achuo
