Corrective exercises for knee collapse in young women
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This study tests whether specific corrective exercises can improve how your knees move when you squat or walk, focusing on women who have knee collapse (dynamic knee valgus) but no pain. If you qualify, you would attend supervised exercise sessions designed to strengthen and align your knees properly.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a woman between 18 and 25 years old.
- You have knees that cave inward when you squat or move (even if it doesn't hurt) — this is called dynamic knee valgus.
- You do not have a BMI of 30 or higher.
- You have not had any leg pain, injury, or surgery in the past year, and you have no health condition that affects your balance or coordination.
- You do not do more than 30 minutes of intense exercise (like running or heavy gym workouts) per week.

This study tests whether two types of exercise—one focused on stabilizing the knee and another on correcting movement patterns—can improve pain and function in people with front-of-knee pain (also called patellofemoral pain). Participants will be randomly assigned to one of the two exercise programs.
This study tests a sports rehabilitation (exercise) program for people with both an ACL tear and kneecap cartilage damage. The goal is to see if a structured exercise plan can improve knee function and reduce pain, helping you recover without surgery.
This study tests whether doing short foot exercises along with focused hip and knee exercises helps reduce knee pain and improve function in women with kneecap pain (patellofemoral pain syndrome). You would be assigned to one of two supervised exercise groups to see which works better.
This trial tests whether special shoe inserts (wedged insoles) combined with ankle straps can reduce pain and improve knee alignment in people with mild bow legs and inner knee pain. It aims to help those who have not had knee surgery and can walk without help.
This study tests if core stability exercises can reduce pain and improve function in women with knee osteoarthritis. It is designed for those who have not had recent physical therapy and can move their knees and hips freely.
This study tests whether doing core exercises can help reduce knee pain in people with patellofemoral pain syndrome—pain at the front of the knee that comes on gradually. It is meant for young adults with a healthy weight who have had this type of knee pain for more than 3 months.
