    I will be 47 in November. 9/30/20 I'm going for new right hip. Had bilateral scfe as a teen. Age 12 2 pins put in left hip. After 9 months on crutches I got to walk to elevator for xray of right hip cup i was limping on that side. Lol. Sure enough had it there too but worse since all my growing weight was on it all that time. Age 12, left 2 pins removed and 3 put in right side, same surgery. 13 more months of crutches those 3 were removed. 2 yrs of crutches. 12 to 14. Now the worse hip is bone on bone with deformity cuz head quit growing while rest of me finished. Can anyone tell me if it will affect the length of my leg? Make it longer ten other one?
