up to 2 cm shortening, u don't need any surgery as most patients don't feel shortening.. don't ever go surgery for 2 cm shortening. u can have shoe raise to compensate if u still feel shortening.

Thank you
2 cm shortening is usually compensated without shoe raise.
Shortening between 2-5 cm needs shoe raise.

2 cm shortenings basically no need for limb lengthening surgery
If you feel discomfort you can made custom made shoes with heel raise

We generally lengthen leg while doing hip replacement. I’ll not recommend additional femur lengthening now
sir 2 on scale is very low. it's unadvisable to go for another surgery. get robotic athletic foot made locally or internationally.
