Hello member of "limps occasionally" club.
For me it's syringomyelia which sometimes makes it extremely painful to put my foot down (best I can describe it is that feeling of hyper sensitivity you get after pins and needles where you don't want to move/touch your foot) but it's so variable that some days I walk normally, some days with a limp - I normally just tell people who notice that I sprained my ankle because it's easier than explaining what a syrinx is and that there isn't any cure beyond medication.
