- A common problem with many people who have suffered neurologic damage is that the leg has a tendency to rotate outward. This can happen due to muscle tightness, poor muscle control or a combination of the two. Learn more about what might be causing this and some of the best exercises to correct this "walking problem"

This is a great video. The issue of hip impingement and lack of internal rotation is incredibly difficult and challenging to work out of. It seems that this doctor has a better handle on it than most videos I've watched.
I just love the simplicity of your delivery... simple but knowledge packed.. Thumps up
Thank you so so so so much! My father recently had a stroke in August of this year and he’s learning to walk again And he externally rotates Ive been waiting for a video like this thank you so so so so so much
Thank you for watching! I am so glad this will help you to help your father 😊
You are a gem. Immediately felt relief from month old pain due to my extremely over active external rotators. Thank you!
This was incredibly helpful! I adore your whole style too. The hair, the nails, the shirt! 😍
I had a stroke about 7 yrs . I had minimal damage . I walk up and down hills without problems . But I drive on the outside of my foot which is getting to be a problem
I've always thought that my leg and foot FELT twisted .They look normal . I've had rt hip pain for years .
I went to PT and a Chiropractor for hip pain .
Thank you for helping me feel as if I'm not crazy .
Thank you Dr. Tobias you're a blessing for a lot of us. Good exercises something to correct.
Dr. Tara, you are great. I'll practise this.
really good set of exercises, thank you
Ma'am. I have one flat foot and the same leg(with the flat foot) is externally rotated. Chronically tight IT band and Quadratus Lumborum.
Can a rotated leg cause sciatic pain? My whole right leg is rotating outwards and I have been having buttock pain for many years especially when I sit. Fingers crossed these exercises will help! Thank you Dr.!
Mate 100% externally rotated hips can lead to sciatica. I am the same as you
@GoogleSpoogle been doing these and other internal rotating exercises and there is some improvement. After 40 minutes driving my butt hurts as much as ever but it kicks in later. Usually felt pain after 5 max 10 min driving now I start feeling it after 20-25 min. I must be doing something right.
ive been having this issue but no one has helped thank you! when i walk i realized my left leg lack inner rotation
If my one leg is externally rotated then my foot of that side would be pronated. Please correct if I am wrong.
i have this issue maybe with driving i believe that this rotated leg lead the pain in back because hip is also rotated and sciatica also
Thank you, great exercises!

What if thigh is rotated inward and lower leg rotated outwards.
What would you suggest ?
(Because of fallen arch of foot)
Dr. Tobias. I'm 12 years post my major haemorrhagic stroke. I only recently discovered your TH-cam channel. What an excellent communicator you are! So many terms like 'spasticity' that I've been hearing for years and never really understood, I now understand through watching your videos. It's just a shame that I live in London, UK so I can't book a visit to your clinic. Do you have any recommendations for resources in London? Thanks again and keep up the good work. You are an inspiration to many!
Hi Nick! Thank you for watching and for becoming a supporter. I am glad you like the content. Is there any topic that you would like me to cover in a future video?
Hi Dr. Tobias, can you please make a video that fixes an inward knee? Thnx!
Thanks for watching! Yes, that is an excellent suggestion for a future video. This is more common with multiple sclerosis than with stroke. Have you suffered a stroke?
@@rehabhqofficial I had a brain bleed...
Thank you for sharing! 2 people commenting with the same problem in one video.....I think this just moved up the list 😊
My mother suffered a stroke and she has an inward knee too, please help us Dr . Tobias 🙏🙏
Thank you for your tips Dr
God bless you more
I have spastic CP and I use a power wheelchair most of the time. I will be 54 years of age this week. When I am transferring and walking with an anterior Kaye walker about 40 feet. The BIG issue that I have is my right leg is bent and the knee is rotated inward and my right foot is externally rotated. I do wear AFO's everyday. I got new AFO's at the end of 2022. What can I do and try to be able to extend and step all the way through with my right leg and what can I do to correct my foot from so much external rotation? Thank you for your time!
Thanks Tara I have this issue. Thanks for sharing this
Thanks for watching! I hope it helps :)
Do you have anything on the reverse problem of kissing knees? MS sufferer with ligament laxity in right knee. My leg is twisting towards the inside and have knee pain. WearA brace for the hyperextension of the knee but I still have tremendous pain. Thanks
Coming soon. :)
I did not see the link to night splint. really interested in getting my calf streched out
Hi Dr Tobias... 💫 grateful x
While sleeping I have my right leg externally rotated more than the normal range...and while doing internal rotation I'm getting pain on my hip joint and a pinching pain on my backside of knee joint..hope this workout helps me.. thankyou
Why is the bone in the middle of my instep so painful when I walk?
Dear Ma'am Tara Tobias
I am a spinal cord injury patient of 17 years and this prolonged years of injury caused my hip to stay in an external rotation state so much so as to cause pain when I physically try to induce internal rotation. This has also caused me spasticity for which my right side ankle gets inverted whenever I try to stand. The more a straighten up the more it gets inverted.
Please help me with some exercises that can be done while sitting up to internally rotate the hip so that I can correct my ankle inversion.
How do i know if this is my problem?
Thanks
Thank you so much!
Thank you

Hi Dr Tobias do I need a knee brace for my hyperextension knee. I had paralysis on my right side one year ago.
This is an interesting video as my issue seems to be the opposite twisted leg problem (cerebral palsy, spastic, both legs but right leg more affected than left.) I stand up from squat or sitting naturally with my knees together feet out (like your yoga block demonstration) so I am trying to learn the opposite movement to this demonstration. My right leg is internally twisted, knee facing in while my right foot collapses in and rotates out to the side. If I straighten the right leg so the knee faces out straight, my right foot is really pointing out to the side.
Ditto!
Great video!! But super long!
What can you do if that particular doesn't move by control but only by reflex it jerks up? How can you get it to straighten out and even move again?
I see you answered part of this question toward the end. Thank you
I have the opposite of this from prolong sitting. I need exercises to help turn my hips and feet outward. My posture is causing me to walk bent over causing my hips and legs to turn too much inward.
My husband's affected leg has very little movement.. what video do u have that is best to start with for someone like him. Also for arm which has no movement at all. Thank you
Hey dr. T., question: can we spread these exercises over multiple days? My HEP is packed with different exercises to fix different problems. I'm in the final stage of the recover. It's fine tuning time. Thanks
This is an excellent question! I would pick on functional movement you want to improve upon in a certain time frame (for example increase single leg standing to 3 seconds). Then work on progressing to that skill (over the course of 4-6 week) ending each session with practicing that skill. The exercises during each sessions should be components of that skill. I hope that helps!
@@rehabhqofficial thanks dear, as long as all those exercises dont have to be completed, say same day. Thanks for your prompt respinse
Any tips for why my left foot turns inward while walking ? I believe it may be due to past ankle injuries I've had but not sure. Could this also be due to my hips being out of alignment ? Thanks :)
.
Again you hit another home run! You are the best Dr. Tobias but my question is when I’m doing the exercise on my side it’s kinda hard for me to get my leg to move. I had a stroke on my left side and that side is hard to move.
Hi Michelle! Practicing on the side should be easier than moving the leg lying on your back but everyone is different. Choose a position where you can successfully complete the movement 😊
@@rehabhqofficial so when I’m lying on my back how do I do the e exercise because my leg is really weak.
Where can I buy a brace for my foot to improve my walking?
Doc I have a problem ,as I'm walking. The middle part of my foot below the toes, it gets painful . What can I do to make it better?
excellent!
I did sprain my left ankle , and when I had it elevated I noticed after a while it would rotate out , and I had and still sort of have a hard time tying my left shoe
Will the internal rotation exercises help to correct external tibial torsion
Thanks waooo that me need this routation
Thanks for this Dr. Your teachings are going a long way. I have curled fist (hand and toes especially the toes) and it's getting worse. Secondly I try to squat but instead I move my leg upward (the back of the sole). How can I fix these please? My physiotherapist is lost! 🤦🏾♀️ I suffered a stroke 3 years ago. Thanks.
Generally speaking, if the heel comes up when someone is attempting a squat, ankle muscles are tight.
@@rehabhqofficial Okay, please how can correct it? Thank you very much!
I broke my femur a couple of years ago and had a lot of problems with my knee and noticed that my leg sticks out. But when I stand straight you can see my entire leg is rotated in and my physical therapist was under the impression that something must have happened in surgery because we worked on similar things and it corrected it a little but never went back to how it was. You suggest weights lifting to help?
Great... thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Hi, when im lying down I can see my right foot is more rotated to the right and the otrher one its ok? , I don't know which leg is working properly but I feels pain in the low back , knee and sometimes the arc of the foot when I wake up , thanks.,
I have pronated feet from outward rotated legs. Is it normal for my knees to start to hurt after doing the exercises?
dr Tara, I am 3 years post stroke, walking with a cane. Why can't I put my weight on my afected leg and stand on it while holding the non afected leg in air? All of the exercises that involves this type of exercise I can not preform. How to fix this?
Thank you for this chanel.
Thanks for watching! You are not alone. This is very common. I have a series on how to progressively "load" the involved leg. Here is a link to the first video. They go in order so just go to the list of videos in chronological order to get to the rest of the videos in the series: th-cam.com/video/kz8d7gCuirQ/w-d-xo.html I hope this helps!
I seem to have the opposite problem. When I go from sitting to standing my affected leg rotates inwards and pushes against my unaffected knee in order to stand.
I wish you would show pictures or video while you speak
Great job anyways
Exactly what I need. If I could only convince my therapist 🙃
My knees rotate inward . How do I fix this 😭
Stay tuned. Video coming soon :)

🎉
Too much talk and less practise
Your nail polish and facial makeup is really becoming on you.
Very helpful video! Identified my specific problem and demonstrated corrective exercises. Very thorough and understandable.I 've learned a lot. Thank you Dr Tara.
You are really just amazing Dr. May God bless you with lots of Happiness in your life. Thansk a lot
Great exercises. I've had a very bad peroneal nerve injury. A nerve decompression has been performed last year, but I still cannot lift my leg normaly and have walking difficulties. Thank you for sharing this great videos.
I was in the hospital for 4 months bed ridden… I really want to fix my legs
a recipe for years of chronic hip pain. do it the other way!
Hello Dr, can you please help me with internal rotation? Thank you!
Very informative think you 65 had a stroke 3 week ago left side affected numb but have full movement
what if the tibia is externally rotated?
Is it ok to feel slight knee soreness when doing these ?? I fell little knee soreness when rotating my leg
Dear Dr. Tara, 🧡🥰🧡 thank 🧡🥰🧡 you 🧡🥰🧡 so much 🧡🥰🧡 for such a super detailed description of what's happening in the body and how to better and heal. You put so much effort in your videos and that helps so much on the road to recovering as many body functions as possible. Lots of my exercises are from you and you are a real blessing. Many greetings from Germany 🧡🧡🧡🥰🥰🥰
Hi Nina! I am so happy that the videos help you. YOU are a blessing to this community and I am so glad you are here to share your experiences as a stroke survivor. I hope you have an amazing week! 😊
@@rehabhqofficial 🥰🥰🥰👍👍👍
I appreciate your videos a lot. The explanation and exercises are extremely helpful.
I never had a stroke or anything I’m young but have this problem. Does anyone know why?
Same
Good Morning I am all the way in South Africa I cannot Thank God enough for finding you after watching all most of your videos it now makes sense to me that I had a stroke in my spine 16 years ago I have been ro so many doctors waisted so much money and Then boooom I find you I love the way you explain everything Thanku and thanku for the excersices I feel such a huge difference not only my body but my mind ro I just want to say Thanku
Thanks. Reviews and updates are beneficial and appreciated.
I wish you 3.5 million followers. Thank you for the wonderful videos. 🙏🙏🙏 I have a problem where while walking my neck falls behind and added to that probably hyper lordosis causes me to fall back and hence I cannot walk stand or sit. Any solution for this in any of your videos? Will be grateful for your reply.
Finally after 25 years I see someone on TH-cam that knows what my issue is. Been to multiple hip doctors, foot doctors, internal surgeon to see if I had a "sports hernia." I herniated a disk 27 years ago. Had tingling down the back and side of my leg. Thank you!!!
Same .. please reply , do u get the solution ..
So did it fix your problem?
Thank you Dr😄. your videos helping me alot.
I have one problem , when I try to raise my leg then the portion below knee doesn't work properly and act like a pendulum.
Dr. Tobias, I need to strengthen my upper back thigh muscle...I'm looking to improve my walking by bending my knee. I currently lift my leg in walking from my hip. Thank you
Suffer from sclerosis this summer had multi pelvic fracture being in hospital with it and suffering hip shortness one leg longer than the other, bended back, knee can’t straight and the leg problems going out like you explaining know. Thank you I maybe get back to normal next year. Thank you.
Thanks 🙏 I’m glad you did this . Being doing exercises for long time now but my spastic ankle is very stiff also my calf muscle is so stiff in the morning why is that ?
Thank you for watching! This is an excellent question and a very common problem. Generally speaking, spasticty can worsen over time if you do not have "tools" in place to prevent muscles for shortening. Here is a video that might help: th-cam.com/video/iWEtH-A_6uk/w-d-xo.html
Physical therapist assistant here and your videos are super helpful!
One question. If my femur and knee are Straight, why do we have to rotate the entire leg during exercise's when we should focus on the tibia? If I missed a point I apologize I don't mean to ruin your channel. It was actually a wonderful and clear explanation. I just have that question.
When I was Exercising on equipment with a therapist my leg would always flop out to the side, and she would have to hold it in so it doesn’t get damaged while I’m exercising. Hopefully this will help so that doesn’t happen anymore
I have a turned in foot and leg
your videos are such blessings
I have quite the track record for this one. I used to longboard for hours on end for miles and miles back in highschool almost every day while also being a doordash/ubereats/instacart driver with all my free time.
SO....... my right leg would constantly be rotated outward to push my longboard and to press the gas pedal for hours and hours working deliveries. I then tore my left hamstring during a season final track meet which gave me a limp. When it healed, i started getting more into gymnastics and martial arts tricking and thats when I really started to notice the problem.
One cannot simply execute a straight flip on a trampoline with one leg rotated 20 degrees out and pushing on the trampoline at an asymmetric angle from the other leg. Muscular imbalances shine clear like deer in headlights in gymnastics and the domino effects from something like this is amplified on trampoline and floor with the more air time you build.
I also developed dancers hip from doing too many twisty taekwondo back kicks. My form of internal snapping hip syndrome is where my iliopsoas tendon is actually stuck out of place on the outer side of my femoral head and only snaps back into place when I move my knee out and up to the same side's shoulder (how convenient, right, it means my hip flexor tendon is out of place unless im in a tuck so i cant stand, jump, or walk evenly/symmetrically), and at around the 30 degree angle mark, I audibly hear the snapping of the tendon over my hip bone.
Then I found this video! Thanks it really helps a lot especially the one where you stand on one leg and then step the nonworking leg up and across. I'm going to get creative and start adding weights and variate the angles and tension points.
Do you have any advice for someone who's leg is turning inwards? I was diagnosed with Perthes disease at a really young age but then another doctor diagnosed me with something then another doctor said it can't be either and after having a hip replacement my mom told me, she thinks it could be because she took abortion pills while she was pregnant with me 🤦🏽♀️ Nevertheless, the affected leg is shorter than the other and over the years, it's caused the affected leg to turn inwards and I'd love to find a way to correct it. Please help 🙏🏽
Merci docteur pour ces exercices! J'en ai besoin💕💕💕💕
These are fantastic exercises, thank you so much!
Thanks for watching!! I hope it helps
Are these to be done with or without the AFO on?
What about, I fractured my femur and had a rod and screw place. But notice my knee is rotated incident?
How often should this routine be done if your lack of rotation in hip impingement is severe?
Like like like like 👍
Coxa vara cases will benefit from exercises or they must do a surgery???
I have the opposite problem, mine is rotating inwards.
Wow is it possible for all those reasons to be why my knee falls out?
I think this actually fixed me
Thats very hard and delicate f your arms has no movement
