      Yea I do too, especially if I'm on my feet for extended periods. :/

      Is your foot the same as the other or do they differ too?

        I started to walk too early and it messed up the development of the joints in my ankles and knees. My left foot point points inwards and other is straight. Normal feet tend to point outwards. Right foot has wrong distribution of weight and the heel eats through any kind of shoe and that only amplifies the slightly different length aspect too... Next time I buy shoes I will try to use a small metal reinforncement to offset the height difference and also protect the shoe from eventual disintegration on the right heel part.

    So... Power to the only slightly gimpy? lol, I am the same as Antumbra, only it is my right leg and foot that is shorter~ My pediatrician at the time suggested to my mom that I have my left leg broken at age two to give the other leg time to grow~ My mom got another pediatrician, and now I look as if I'm limping at the end of a long workday~ Could be worse, I suppose~ ^^

    On another note, may I ask how you chose your username? I heard somewhere that antumbra had something to do with shadows... Or is it something different entirely?

    @Tiido: wow, I didn't know you could start walking too early! I hope the reinforcement works for you; shoes can get pricey~

      Partial gimps unite! That is crazy about the doc wanting to break your leg! I had a doc operate on my foot to try to help it when I was young, but now my big toe is just smaller than the next lol.

      I actually picked the name because I love space and stuff (just as a hobby, nothing professional). It is a type of shadow, like when an eclipse doesnt completely cover the body of light, causing a halo effect.
