After struggling with jaw, shoulder and knee pain for a short while ( predominantly on the right side) I began seeing a chiropractor who suspected I had a leg length issue and took an x-ray, he then informed me that my right leg was shorter by about 3/8 of an inch and supplied me with a small heel lift for my right shoe. At first it seemed to be helping, but now after several weeks i feel tight in areas of my body that i suspect are related to the lift. My left hip, left mid-back and shoulder area feel much tigher than ever before and now I want to take the lift out although the right side seems to be doing better. Needless to say after doctoring for a while trying to solve these problems and feeling temporarily that I had infact done so, I am very frustrated. So what I would like to know most is depending on what side a lift is applied, what muscles would hypothetically tighen/loosen from the addition of the lift, and what side would they be on (lift or non-lift side)? Thank you.
I know this question is complicated so I would appreciate any general advice/ personal experience with leg lifts that might be helpful

I had a small piece of bone that had a benigned tumor in it removed from my left hip. I was 7 or 8 years old in the 1950′s. I wore a cast for a long long time. It was said my parents didn’t take me back to the dctor to have to have the cast removed when it was supposed to.
