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.
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 a gem. Immediately felt relief from month old pain due to my extremely over active external rotators. Thank you!
I just love the simplicity of your delivery... simple but knowledge packed.. Thumps up
This was incredibly helpful! I adore your whole style too. The hair, the nails, the shirt! 😍
I appreciate your videos a lot. The explanation and exercises are extremely helpful.
Thanks. Reviews and updates are beneficial and appreciated.
Dr. Tara, you are great. I'll practise this.
Merci docteur pour ces exercices! J'en ai besoin💕💕💕💕
You are really just amazing Dr. May God bless you with lots of Happiness in your life. Thansk a lot
Wow amazing video, all these exercises make my hip feel so much more aligned. I'm not even a stroke patient, just had a post femoral nerve ablation go bad. Not a good connection with this leg anymore.
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.
These are fantastic exercises, thank you so much!
Thanks for watching!! I hope it helps
Great exercises! For a long time after the stroke, I was told that this is the characteristic gait (with external rotation) of those who have had a stroke. Only recently I worked with a physical therapist who explained what I had to do and gave me the same exercises as the ones in your video. The fact that I also discovered them on your channel strengthens my belief that I will regain a normal gait. Thank you! You're great!
Physical therapist assistant here and your videos are super helpful!
your videos are such blessings
Thankyou so much for showing these exercises.
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 😊
Thank you Dr. Tobias you're a blessing for a lot of us. Good exercises something to correct.
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
Finally after 25 years I see someone on UA-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?
Another fantastic and informative video. Thank you 😊
I appreciate you Fred. I hope the information is helpful!

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 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.
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.
Thank you for your tips Dr
God bless you more
God bless you !! I could find almost all the details for my mom who has psp .
Hi Dr Tobias... 💫 grateful x
amazing exercises
Thanks Tara I have this issue. Thanks for sharing this
Thanks for watching! I hope it helps :)
Brilliant video
thank you Doctorr.
God bless you 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
this is me! it's like you looked right at my problem and told me what to do about it. I will watch all of them thank you so much! I have a new member and I'm just browsing to see what was gonna be what I'm Going to need. I'm gonna be looking at what I could do for strengthening shoulder, foot drop, basic MS problems. Is there a possibility of getting an evaluation strictly from you or do I need to be a premium member?
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 so much Dr Tara Tobias for this very crucial update ❤️
Thanks doc, this helped my leg a lot ❤️
Yay Steve! This will give you some stuff to work on as I am assuming your long walks must take a back seat in the winter 😊
@@rehabhqofficial yes they do way to much spasticity in the cold, and the roads are slippery 😳
Thank you very much
Thanks. While sitting, I observed my non-stroke knee can easily pivot inward, but my stroke knee is resisting about 50% of the way. I'll need to somehow stretch that out. I also noticed that after 9 months since the event, I find it necessary to again do runners-stretches on my stroke calf. Another aspect of the stroke trifecta on my stroke leg is the ongoing lack of strength in the shin muscles that facilitate dorsiflexion. Just sharing. I'm grateful to moving about.
Excelente vídeo. Minha perna esquerda está rodada para fora. Agora sei como treinar para melhorar isso. 😮❤🇧🇷
Thank you
Brilliant thank you
pure magic thanks tara
Thanks for watching!
i always look out for new videos think ihave frozen shoulder🙄
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.
Very informative think you 65 had a stroke 3 week ago left side affected numb but have full movement
excellent!
thank you 🙏 very much for posting your videos-
i have an excessive supination.
i wore bad orthotics for 5 month
and now my foot has a bad supination habit-
it’s affecting my left hip.
and it gave me Morton neuroma in my right foot
its a tough fight for me trying to bring things now to where they should be
That was a full breakdown. Thank you so much hopefully this helps me walk and move properly again!
You are wonderful, and I absolutely have learned how to help myself. Thanks.and may God bless you.
Yay Patsy! Teaching people (who have suffered damage to their neurologic system) how to learn how to help themselves is my #1 mission. 😊 Thank you for sharing your experience
Orlando Neuro Therapy I wish I could come
I have Cauda Equina Syndrome diagnosed after a slip in the bathroom on March 8, 2020. I need help.
amazing knowledge Dr
I hope it is helpful. I hope it is making you a better, more skilled clinician (regardless of your setting 😊)
Dr. Tobias, I’m 7 years post and I could only wish that I could’ve had your guidance earlier in my recovery, but I’m truly grateful to have access to you now.
Thank you 🙏🏾
Amazing ❤️❤️
This was so helpful! I am 26 and have had hip issues for a while. My leg is stuck in external rotation and I have not seen many videos about this. I’m gonna start these exercises tomorrow.
Does it work??
Hello dr. Can you make a video also about pedia therapy.. my child suffered a brain injury and i really like your videos. I was just hoping if you could incorporate some approach on toddlers.
Great... thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching!
Miss you are awesome.
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: ua-cam.com/video/iWEtH-A_6uk/v-deo.html
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.
Helpful mam...
I am a physio
Your video really helped me for my patient recovery
Yay! I am so glad :)
Thanks ♥️♥️🥰
Thanks waooo that me need this routation
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
Can you do a video on spasticity and exercises for the wrist?
all the best God bless you..
Thanks for watching! I hope the information was helpful😊
Thanks
Thank you so much!
Have you considered offering virtual PT? You would help me so much.
ive been having this issue but no one has helped thank you! when i walk i realized my left leg lack inner rotation
thank you Dra. for your help but i dont have money to pay for the reg. i well continue my pt rehab that iwas learn w/your chanel thank you so much. and more power to you keep safe!!!
Thank you for watching! No worries, that is why these videos are free. Lots of people in your situation 😊 I hope the information will help you in your rehab journey!
@@rehabhqofficial yes! its help me alot because of your vedio ive learned alot on your pt exercise. that way i thanks to you alot of times cause ive benifits alot of your pt rehab during lockdowndue to covid pandemic❤❤❤
Hi dr thank you for all of your videos. I had a young stroke at 32 and I am going to do fit stroke program soon but for me my leg rotated inward and I walk on the out side of foot so I think it’s leas common then the rotating out. Is there anything you can give me tips on for a leg that goes in ? Appreciate eating your opinions ❤
Thank you doctor I am having this problem when I walk on uneven surface I am 2and half year old stroke patient
I think this actually fixed me
In the toe tapping cross over my knee wants to go into recurvatum on the effected leg although this still works the intended muscles at the hip the should I force some knee flexion or is a stable straight leg ok?
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
Hi Dr Tobias do I need a knee brace for my hyperextension knee. I had paralysis on my right side one year ago.
And can youplease suggest the exercises thats already on your channel that i can focus on to improve my movement
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
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. :)
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!
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 🙏🙏
I was in the hospital for 4 months bed ridden… I really want to fix my legs
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?
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.
Thank you! 🤍 QUESTION: When I'm trying get up from a chair, my affected knee bends in. What can I about that?
BUT: my affected leg is also rotated outwards when I'm walking.
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
Hello Dr, can you please help me with internal rotation? Thank you!
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 :)
.
What if thigh is rotated inward and lower leg rotated outwards.
What would you suggest ?
(Because of fallen arch of foot)
I did not see the link to night splint. really interested in getting my calf streched out
Is it ok to feel slight knee soreness when doing these ?? I fell little knee soreness when rotating my leg
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
Thats very hard and delicate f your arms has no movement
Thank you, 💕
thank you, 💕
thank you! 💕
Praise God 🙏
Hi Kathleen! Thank you for watching. I hope these exercises help you in your recovery journey 😊
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!
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.
Are these to be done with or without the AFO on?
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.
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!
How often should this routine be done if your lack of rotation in hip impingement is severe?
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.
