About Leg Length Discrepancy

Leg length discrepancy (Limb Length Discrepancy), also known as anisomelia, in which two limbs are of unequal lengths. LLD is an orthopedic condition that can appear during growth or as a result of an injury or illness that causes damage to the growth plate. Most people have some degree of leg length discrepancy, but larger differences can affect well-being and quality of life by keeping you from participating in the activities you like.
