The medical term for bowlegs is genu varum. The name comes from the fact that the legs bow -- or curve -- outward from each other. Most experts agree that bowlegs are normal in children up until 24 to 36 months of age.
Bowlegs also referred to as Genu Varum or bandiness is a physical deformity which leads to outward bowing of the lower leg in relation to the thigh. The condition makes a personâs knees stay wide apart while standing with feet and ankles together, with the appearance of an archerâs bow.
