Everything Adds Up

Ever since I was little I have been sitting on my knees. I find it comfortable and often sit on my leg. It never occurred to me that sitting this way could affect my legs. After my foot had been bothering me for a few days my mom brought me to a foot and ankle specialists. My sister often has problems with her ankle, recently tearing ligaments and currently in a cast, so being friendly with the doctor he took a look at my foot and realized my knees turn inwards. After explaining to me the danger of continuing to sit this way, my options are to stop sitting this way or possibly having surgery because every time I sit on my knees I am wearing away my knee caps and the bones associated with them. So next time you decide to sit on your knees continuously, you may want to sit in a different position.
