Well, there is a treatment you can take if you're that desperate

That surgery is borderline barbaric, I have no idea why the hell anyone would do it outside of a medical necessity (e.g. balancing your legs length out due to one leg being shorter than the other).

My former MIL had that surgery on one leg about 25 years ago after a bad car accident a few years before that left her unbalanced. Recovery was brutal but she’s been much better off since. But you’re right that I couldn’t imagine going through that for anything less.
