An antalgic gait is a gait that develops as a way to avoid pain while walking (antalgic = anti- + alge, "against pain"). It is a form of gait abnormality where the stance phase of gait is abnormally shortened relative to the swing phase. It can be a good indication of pain with weight-bearing.[1]
Conditions associated with an antalgic gait
- Coxalgia[2]
- Legg–Calvé–Perthes disease
- Osteoarthritis
- Pelvic girdle pain
- Slipped capital femoral epiphysis[3]
- Tarsal Tunnel Syndrome[4]
