Running with turned out foot

Hi- I've recently started running. I've always (for as long as I can remember) walked with one of my feet turned slightly out, not sure what the underlying cause of this is. Similarly, I also run with an out turned foot. I never am sore on my knee or foot on that leg, but I do sometimes wear a knee brace just in case, because I have read online that an out turned foot can lead to injury.
Is there any danger in not correcting an out turned foot? Should I see a physical therapist? Or is it OK to run this way?
