When I was 14, I wiped out on my motorcycle and ended up with a broken femur. I spent months stuck in a cast, and the recovery process was an absolute grind. Since those are the prime years for physical development, I’ve realized lately that one leg is actually shorter than the other—something a chiropractor pointed out to me a while back. It’s obvious that for years, I’ve been subconsciously compensating for the injury, and now I’m starting to feel occasional pain in my knee.
Ten years down the line, after this past ski season absolutely wrecked my knees, I’ve decided I need to deal with this once and for all. I’m honestly at a loss for where to turn. While things aren't critical right now, I’m worried about permanent misalignment issues later in life. I’ve even had people suggest that my constant compensation likely shifted my pelvis out of alignment, implying there might be a way to reset it.
Is there anyone here with actual expertise who can point me in the right direction?
Chiropractors? Orthopedic surgeons? Who should I be looking for?😉
