expatbrit Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 Your orthopaedic surgeon will advise. Whether an insert or built up shoe is required depends on your gait and the degree of stress induced in the hip/knee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skippybangkok Posted December 8, 2015 Author Share Posted December 8, 2015 Thx - kinda got recommended to do, but only 3.5mm diff. Read many articles and ie a sample of 600 healthy army guys, the diff was 5mm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FBN Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 It is quite normal that leg lengths differ in the normal population. Usually only a difference of more than 2,5cm needs to be corrected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
