That is varus deformity of the left leg. It is a leg bone deformity that can affect one or both legs. It is the opposite of valgus deformity where the knee bows inward. There is no treatment.

Is he able to walk around well enough to get food and water? If he can tolerate a wrap around his knee to help reinforce the knee that might help, but don’t get it too tight.
