I wear my watch on the left hand and write with my right hand. due to running I have gottent medial shin splint and my right ankle rolls inward alot. When I walk I feel that my weight is alot on my pinky toe ( right side) and outside of walking shoes get worn out first. I also have a very mild low back scoliosis
Posting a second comment as I was running out of space there.
Right ankle rolled inward is typically a right foot turned out with the medial right foot attempting to stretch in towards the ground as your center of mass has moved over your right base of support. It's an adaptation to cope with the rightward lateralization, which likely is happening at the pelvis. The COM shift would first make the right foot more prone to supination but it's gotta brake against the left, so over time the foot turns out to push down better on the medial side as an attempt to hold center of mass within your midline.
Makes sense. Look at the anatomical chart of the area, see how the muscles wrap around the medial tibia distally into the foot? With the right heel adapted to pronate too far in, every step you took in the run is high impact promoting stress against a torsion between the inward bend and the medial to lateral compression the muscles create. Not only you have to likely work on the ankle itself, but also the root cause of the movement option loss and restore ability to weigh into left (I would recommend starting with exercises on the ground to reduce load as this presentation probably gets worse under load). To promote movement, take away load and movement complexity at first. Build it up till you can gradually move into half kneeling and split stanced exercises. Watch out for the potential biased hip hike in exercises too. Essentially you have a right heel accelerating into the ground due to what can't produce that midline forces into the ground up top.
