Leg length discrepancy can be one of two types. One type is structural, where there is an actual, physical difference between the same bones in each limb.

In a functional discrepancy, bones in the leg are of equal length, but some other factor creates a discrepancy. This is often related to muscle tightness which creates a problem in symmetry.
