Official title
Defining and Correcting Limb Length Inequality in Adults With Knee or Hip Symptoms
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Limb length inequality is when a person has one leg that is longer than the other. This research will look at correcting limb length inequality in adults with knee or hip symptoms. This study will examine whether ways of measuring leg length inequality in the clinic are valid and reliable, determine whether foot posture (flat foot, normal, and high arch) is related to leg length inequality, and determine whether shoe lifts are a helpful treatment for leg length inequality and knee/hip symptoms.
