How to cope with structural muscular assymetry?

[Basman]

Got fucked by a flesh eating virus one day and today I'm missing bits of my calf muscle, hamstring area and glutes (on my left leg). The back of my knee is hollow. I can walk and function fine but my left leg is obviously significantly weaker than my non-mutilated leg. As a result, I tend to experience a lot of tightness and fatigue in that leg that I don't experience with my healthy right leg.

Any advice for dealing with this health wise? Workouts? stretching? massage? I don't know. Right now I'm healthy and young but I'm worried that when I get older that my weak leg will suffer from knee issues. Whenever I put weight on my weak leg in a squat position for instance, I can feel the muscle right above my knee compressing down on it in a way that feels uncomfortable. It doesn't feel right. If I walk or cycle a lot in a period I can feel my weak leg becoming tense and uncomfortable and it becomes painful to run.

Thank god that I don't have a physical life purpose or that I'm a woman.

Have you looked into MAT? A practitioner *might* be able to help with some of that tightness.
