Do physical problems coincide with Autism?

AnneMargaret

I think i read, possibly on here possibly not, a while ago that walking problems can sometimes be believed to be related to Autism.

Does anyone know anything or can anyone elaborate?

I have extremely lax joints and ever such slight walking problems - i walk slightly off balance, we have just found out one leg is shorter than the other possibly from an operation but my legs are out of line and i am getting pains in my knees, hips and back. My feet roll badly inwards and i have had physio off and on for about 10years. Because my joints are so lax my ankles/legs cannot support my feet.

Everything is going wrong physically at the minute.

Does anyone know anything?

Thanks. Anne.

    In what way was your partner's walk weird?

    hard to explain, his legs were kinda going out, his feet were pointing nearly sideways and it was affecting his knees, it took a lot of effort for him to 'walk straight', sometimes i see his feet going out a wee bit but its not what it used to be which is good because it wasnt doing his legs any good

    he does get sore legs from standing up a while but i suppose everyone does , but it used to be worse back then
