Quote from: SpeedDialer on November 20, 2022, 08:10:42 PMThanks, so once my IT band grows back the swaying will decrease? I've been practicing walking with crutches and it does sort of feel like some kind of something is happening at the top bone connected to the IT band when I put less pressure on the crutches and rely more on the legs
I'm also trying to fix the swaying
How to stop swaying when walking post-consolidation?
Its really interesting, my doctor sort of recommended me practicing a kind of walking where the feet go forward but kind of cross each other's side. A bit hard to explain, like the left foot moves forward but a bit to the right (so just crossing the centerline in front of me) and then the right foot moves forward but a bit to the left (just crossing the centerline in front of me). And repeat. I might be describing it wrong. But it gives off the look/feel of a sort of narrow criss cross
I am not sure the reason, he explained it to me but it went over my head and I didn't understand
I wonder if other doctor's also recommended this to you guys and what the reason was

LPHC = this thing?

Its really a beautiful thing that the IT band grows right back. Its funny like we have nerves and spinal cords which can get completely fked up when they get cut. We have skin that can get scarred badly when cut in certain ways. And then we have the IT band that just grows right back to the point it looks like it was never touched.
