My daughter has scoliosis and one foot is 1 1/2 inches shorter than the other. She likes to run but it's painful because of the height difference. Does anyone have a suggestion that would help her out.

    Check with a good running shoe store or maybe even her doctor. I believe there are shoe inserts for this sort of thing.

    I'd visit a sports medicine clinic, where they can provide custom shoe inserts if necessary, and also correct her running form (often contributes to pain). Following generic advice off the web could make it worse.
