4. When to go to the Doctor

People who experience any unexplained or uncontrollable gait abnormalities should speak to a doctor. At the doctor’s office, the physician can make a proper diagnosis by taking a thorough medical history and performing a physical exam. If the situation is not self-correcting, the doctor may recommend medical treatment or the use of devices such as leg braces, casts, or special shoes.
