first iliolumbar ligaments, then SI ligaments may become stressed on side of short leg
tx: if femoral head difference is >5mm then consider heel lift
heel lift guidelines
final lift should be 1/2-3/4 of themeasured leg length prob if chronic prob. if acute prob (hip fracture, hip prostehesis) then full amount
fragile pt should get 1/16 heel lift to start...and inc every 2 weeks
flex pt - 1/8 to start, then inc every 2 week
