My doctor thinks the valgus deformity in my right leg is so severe that I shouldn't be walking without a brace. When he watched me walk he said "Horrible, horrible" and put his hands to his head. "Why did no one notice this? You went 45 years with that deformity?"
"Thanks, doc!" I said.
Anyway, I'm now making an appointment with the best ortho place in the Philadelphia area.
