My opinion:
This is an obsurd thread!

Why would an Ortho Doctor tell you that stretching would alter your body frame: an ortho problem. This is in the bones---the way your frame is built. Yes a few devices applied to the legs, built to cover a majority of you, and worn over a course of years---might make a difference. Think dental braces!

BTW: I would question the reality of this Doctor's credentials.

Get a second opinion from another Doctor.

BTW: they are called Knock Knees---because they knock together.
