how to tell if one leg is shorter than the other
I thought the following comment from Debra was so helpful I’d post it. Thanks Debra. I’m going to go see my Chiro/ARTS guy as soon as I can!
You can often spot leg length discrepency by looking in a mirror and checking whether your pelvis is level. The tell-tale sign is that the curve of the waist is different on both sides. That?s what my podiatrist says.
Mind you, according to my chiropractor (as far as I can remember) leg length discrepency can be caused by a tilted pelvis.

I’m pretty sure my legs are of marginally different lengths. But then, one of my feet is slightly smaller than the other, too. Not a whole lot I can do about that, is there? I just try to be mindful of how I land on each foot, sometimes thinking about one, sometimes the other, depending on which calf/arch/whatever is acting up at the time.
