A childhood growth plate injury caused one side of the knee to stop growing—leading to severe knock-knee alignment in one leg.

This is not a condition that injections or simple treatment can fix. It requires surgical correction.
This surgery corrects the deformity by carefully realigning the bone, restoring proper alignment and balance to the knee, and securing it with internal fixation.

Dr. Corbett Winegar, MD, FAAOS—fellowship-trained in knee and trauma—specializes in complex deformity correction like this. When the problem is structural, the surgeon’s training and precision matter. The right diagnosis and surgical plan can dramatically improve function, pain, and long-term joint health.

If you have concerns about knee alignment or unexplained knee pain, it’s worth an evaluation.

Pain along the inside of the knee can sometimes be caused by pes anserine bursitis, where three tendons — the sartorius, gracilis, and semitendinosus — attach to the tibia. Tight or weak muscles around the knee can increase irritation in this area.

In this video, Dr. Corbett Winegar demonstrates exercises that can help support the knee and reduce strain:

• Straight leg raises and knee extensions to strengthen the quadriceps
• Side-lying hip adduction (lifting the bottom leg) to strengthen the inner thigh
• Bridges and heel slides to activate the hamstrings and improve knee mobility
• Functional movement drills: walk 100 steps backward, 100 steps sideways, and practice slow circular walking along a countertop for balance and muscle stretching (use support so you don’t fall)

Strengthening and improving flexibility around the knee can help decrease stress on the pes bursa and support recovery.

Pes anserine bursitis can create an aching, irritated feeling along the inside of the knee.

The pes bursa is like a small sac of oil that reduces friction where three tendons attach. When it becomes inflamed, it can feel swollen, tender, and “angry.”

A cortisone injection works like a concentrated anti-inflammatory — similar in purpose to ibuprofen — but delivered directly into the inflamed bursa.

Instead of circulating through your whole body, it targets the exact source of inflammation.
✔️ Reduces swelling
✔️ Calms irritation
✔️ Relieves pain

Combined with proper stretching and activity modification, this can significantly improve symptoms and restore function.

🦵 What you don’t see after knee replacement matters.

After a total knee replacement (TKA), Dr. Corbett Winegar closes the incision using layered, dissolvable sutures — not staples.

While staples are faster, Dr. Winegar uses a plastic-surgery–grade layered closure technique designed to:

• Support proper healing
• Reduce surface tension on the skin
• Improve cosmetic appearance
• Eliminate staple removal appointments

Every layer is carefully closed to promote strength, healing, and a smoother scar result.

Precision doesn’t stop at the implant — it continues all the way to the final stitch.
