Went to our first ortho appointment today. Discovered a leg length discrepancy. Ortho is having us get a heel lift and we go back in 6 weeks for an xray with lift.
The major curb is lumbar area. First xrays showed a 43 degree curve today's xrays show 50 degree with a risser (not sure of spelling) at 3. I am not sure what the 2 thoracic curves today as ortho was focused on the lumbar area. Last time there was a 28 and 21 degree.
Anyone have any experience with lifts? When we left today I guess I thought it was going to be as easy as adding a lift and all was going to be good. Then I started reading and found this might be so. Still in the hurry up and wait game to see what happens when the lift is added.
Just wondering if anyone has any experiences/additonal information.
