Quick Answer — Waddling Gait
Waddling gait (Trendelenburg gait) features wide stance with side-to-side hip drop while walking — caused by hip abductor (gluteus medius) weakness, hip dysplasia, muscular dystrophy, or pregnancy biomechanics. The foot pain connection: compensatory overuse of foot stabilizers leads to plantar fasciitis, peroneal tendonitis, and metatarsalgia. Evaluation requires gait analysis, hip strength testing, and X-rays. Treatment targets the underlying cause plus supportive footwear and orthotic correction. See a podiatrist or orthopedist for evaluation.
