A couple of years ago, I complained that my foot wasn't going in the same direction as the rest of me. It wasn't until a month or two ago that I realized the the result of that injury was that I have no balance when I try to stand on that foot.
I started physio yesterday.
You know you've done a good job when the physiotherapist repeatedly says, "This is really interesting." Apparently, my joint was really stiff and my ankle wasn't bending properly. She worked her magic and gave me some exercises to do at home.
The interesting part to me is that my foot didn't hurt until I started physio. After physio, it hurt - well, more of an ache, actually. The exercises also make it ache.
But I can balance on that foot again.
I Thought It Was Pretty Thoughtful

I have a vestibular problem for which I have had balance therapy. I will always have this so must do daily exercises to help keep my balance. I don't want to be one these little ol' ladies who falls down and breaks a hip.
