Hey, wait a minute! I thougt it was my gate they have never, never, ever seen before! Ha! Wonder if they teach this line in their schooling? Hmmmm.
I have weak hips. One side more than the other. The physical therapists are great at telling you what exactly is going on. My feet quickly point out to the side as I take a step. I dont want them to. the ptherapist showed me this happens because I am using the muscle on the inside of my leg to move my leg forward. The more steps I take, my feet have to touch down as I cant finish the step.
It is all in how our body compensates. I have to unlearn leaning forward. Leaning forward allows me to walk better as forward doesnt use the sides as much. But then my lower back takes a toll.
Yes, dont let them make you doubt your symptoms! They do it to almost everyone!
