How can I heal with my right hand in Skyrim?

Solution 1:

Directly equip spells (same instructions whether in the magic menu, or the favorite menu).

• Left click on healing to equip it to the right hand (left mouse button).
• Right click on flames to equip it to the left hand (right mouse button).

Equipping spells via hotkey assignment

• Open the magic menu and press f on both flames and healing to mark them as favorites.
• Open the favorites menu and press 3 on flames and 4 on healing (3 and 4 for the example, any numbers, 1 to 8 will work). This assigns the spell to the key, but not to any particular hand.
• exit the favorites menu.
• Press 4 once to equip healing to the left hand.
• Press 4 a second time to equip healing to the right hand.
• Press 3 once to equip flames to the left hand.

That is, press 4,4,3 to get the first spell in the right hand and the second spell in the left hand.

This also works to get a spell in the right hand and a shield in the left hand.

Solution 2:

It's a MAJOR flaw in the interface. The only way to get something else in your right hand is to equip a weapon in it then equip the spell you want.

Solution 3:

I fixed this problem by replacing my "Skyrim - Interface.bsa" file with a version that wasn't corrupted.
