Leg length

Posted , 11 users are following.

Hi, Had left THR 6 months ago.My operated leg is half an inch longer.My surgeon told me he would make the other one the same length when I have it done.Has anyone had a successful outcome with this?I have found this aspect of my surgery very difficult to accept.
