David Beckham Has One Leg Shorter Than The Other

England's football captain, David Beckham, has said that one of his legs is much shorter than the other.


According to some experts, this is not unusual. Very few of us are symmetrical down the midline (completely symmetrical). Everyone probably has one leg shorter than the other.


There seems to be disagreement among experts whether this has an effect on posture and back pain.


Some people say that we do get back pain as the body compensates for the discrepancy (it puts the back under stress). Others say that the difference in leg length would have to be huge for any back pain or other complaints to emerge.
