limping - gluteus medius release

Our user asked: "Hi, 10 years ago I realized that my legs were twisted out and had a contracted muscle mass in the lateral and posterior part of the pelvis ( gluteus medius I believe) and little development of the gluteus maximus , all bilateral , my pelvis looked different of others, widened, and the greater trochanter of the femurs not sticking out , instead what protruded on both sides was the top of the ilium or iliac crest , but was not evident, just on palpation was obvious . I intuitively began exercising after warm up a bit, what I did was compress with my hand in the form of pin the contracted muscle while doing leg lateral abduction , when I felt that muscle ceded i increased compression and I did several repetitions for a time and the day that completely ceded my leg changed its alignment . Walking and moving straight, iliac crest was attenuated while the trochanter is pronounced , taking a normal shape . These exercises were very intense and I was exhausted , also felt a little afraid because I did not know if what I had done was right or not so I decided not to continue with the other leg . This created a disparity in my legs and so I have a slight limp . Searching the internet I read something about the tension of the gluteus medius and what this can cause as well as different techniques to release this tension, I am not sure but maybe the exercise i did released the tension of the gluteus medius and aligned my right leg properly, I wish someone can tell me if what i did was exactly the release of the gluteus medius or not, what should i do with my other leg to align it and correct the limp, maybe some exercises less traumatic than what i did, therapy or device that can help, thank you"
