I have knock knee deformity. Can i rectify it through any surgical or other methods?

Does this surgery cause any restrictions in vigorous physical activities later. How long it will take to rectify it?

Knock-knee deformity can be cured by corrective osteotomy operation. Best results will be achieved in children and adolescents.
