    Short leg!
    Hi, I am 13 years old. Recently I have been noticing some difficulty walking. I feel like my left leg is longer and my right leg is shorter. Is this anything serous? Please answer as soon as possible.

    A chiropractor told me that most people have one leg about a fraction of an inch shorter.
    I wouldn't worry about it unless it is something really noticeable or annoying.
    If you are having trouble walking you might want to check with the doc or a chiropractor.

    Thanks for the answer, I don't have that much trouble walking, my left ankle starts to hurt. But I think I should be fine.

    My ankles bother me sometimes too. I think it is just from all the walking and standing.
    If it becomes a problem make sure to go to the doc or chirop.

    Actually yes, almost all people have one leg slightly longer than the other.
    But if you are having issues, and they continue always check with a local professional.
