    Yes the key is don't worry about it and it works itself out! I will say that other than the very obvious ankle contraction, a symptom is that I can feel like my left leg is almost running through water instead of air (compared to my right, there is like this slight resistance) or its being held back. I have recently though been thinking that that isn't necessarily a symptom of dystonia like my ankle, because it feels and acts different, but might be involved with just general muscle tension (like my thigh is a rock, my ankle is never like that) and some biomechanics patterns I've gotten into with my just compensating for the ankle and foot for so long. I've also always felt my leg "hesitancy" is my body is still afraid of putting my foot down because it was painful for so long and still can be.
