Why is my right leg bigger than the other (see pic)?

[Anonymous]

My right leg (left side in the pic) is a lot bigger than the other and after losing 80 lbs it's still like that, how can I fix it? I thought it was fat when I was overweight but it seems it just doesn't go away

[MORPHEUS_12]

You must be right handed. All of the muscles that are used on whichever is your dominant side are larger and more developed because of use. Example whichever is your dominant side you will put that foot out first when you start to walk. Also I looked at your legs and compared them with one another and I didn't really see any cause for any alarm. Now sometimes people will get lymphedema where an appendage such as an arm or a leg will grow grossly disproportionate to the other. I do not see any cause for worry.

Hmmm... body parts don't really do things like that. When you lose weight things like limbs even themselves out. Are you sure it isn't a medical issue? That's a slightly more noticeable difference than usual.

Yeah I know but even when I was 240 lbs my right leg was bigger

[LMNOP123]

There are some people who are naturally like you. You can try and work it out specially and see how it works. If it stays the same it sounds like it's just how you're built. If it's still bigger, don't worry about it. It's not one of those things where it's glaringly obvious. If I saw you in the street I know I wouldn't notice. I only will if you point it out to me. Even if people notice on their own they may think they aren't seeing it right. I had to check a few times just to make sure I'm actually seeing what you're seeing.
Really, don't fret if it ends up staying how it is.

Well you easily have a thigh gap and your legs look kinda too thin if you could gain some weight to fill them out. Fat storage prefers the areas that remain compressed for extended periods of time (like how some girls have big butts from sitting a lot) and this tends to be even more of the case when you have more weight on the compressed area

I injured my one knee and the one leg got extra muscle to compensate.

Go to a doctor ( or call one ) could be something serious

[Asker]

Is it that noticeable?

[micaella]

Just a little bit. But when somethings not right with my body I tend not to leave it to chance and have it checked out.
Again consult a doctor, could be nothing but just in case

[blutwolfe]

Cause more muscle in that leg, you favor that leg aka dominant leg

[Asker]

Makes sense also because I walk long distances everyday

It doesn’t look bad but you should see a doctor in case it’s a blood clot

[Asker]

It's not a blood clot because I had already gone to a doctor, he said it could be fat build up (I'm still losing weight) but I don't know.. I'm still 20 pounds heavier than my ideal weight, it's just that I don't think it will even out at this point

Reading the text and then looking at the picture, I can't help but think this is a modern version of "Where's Waldo".

It could be inflammation. It looks like its swollen..

Go to doktor or can to exercise.

[Ripper_E]

Go see a chiropractor

[Jack-mayhoff]

That is odd. Do you jump on on leg a lot.

[Asker]

I walk a lot, I guess that's my dominant leg as someone said in the comments so muscles are more developed there

[In_Trance]

If you didn't mention it, nobody would ever notice

[Cryptic-Game]

No idea but ask a doctor.

[Iron_Man]

[Anonymous]
