Many people have one leg that is a little shorter than the other. It is frequently so subtle that you might not even notice it until you begin to experience symptoms or your shoes start to wear unevenly:
Possible Symptoms from a short leg:
- Pain in the lower back
- Pain in the knee of both the long and short legs
- Pain in the leg and lower back due to inflammation or sciatica
- Poor balance when running or walking
- Ankle and foot pain
- Fatigue
A person with a short leg will frequently modify their posture to compensate for the imbalance, which may result in postural and spinal misalignment accompanied by pain and symptoms.
If you or a loved one are experiencing any of the above symptoms, call the Chait Chiropractic Center at 941-371-1070 to schedule a complimentary posture analysis and consultation.
