House premiere: This is my confused face

[timepiececlock]

A significantly major-ass question about continuity:

I thought House couldn't walk properly because he was missing muscle in his leg? As in-- it's physically not there?

I couldn't really get into the rest of the episode because I was distracted by that gaping plot hole.

They've actually discussed this over in one of the comms. Some people who know doctors mentioned this and, apparently, someone with House's injuries CAN still walk/run/etc. They were saying, in House's case, it seemed to be more mental trouble holding him back.

Whoa. Dr. House isn't a gimp anymore?

So he's just an asshole without even a flimsy excuse now?
