Summary
This study looks at how having one leg shorter than the other affects the hips and lower back in children aged 10 to 15. Researchers will use special X-rays and force measurements to calculate joint loads. The goal is to understand these effects better so doctors can decide on early treatments to prevent future problems like arthritis or back pain.
