Something I've noticed; my gait has changed since I've recovered from my injury when I tore a ligament whilst climbing over a stile, and then a few days later, getting tangled up in my vacuum cleaner's hose, tripping and falling down several steps at home.
I've always had an awkward, bouncy, loping way of walking which I assumed was due to my Asperger's syndrome causing to me to be clumsy and un-coordinated, and more recently my decades of undiagnosed severe vitamin D deficiency which could have caused permanent muscoloskeletal damage.
Until a few months ago though when climbing up stairs I would always firmly plant my entire foot on each step, but now I only place the front few inches there - I've observed that this seems to be what most people do.
So, maybe my gait has now improved or become more naturalistic, I don't know. I tried climbing steps how I used to but found out that I don't have the strength in my thigh muscles.
