How would you fix this glitched area?

I assume the problem area is obvious, roughly 2/3 of the area of this section of a photo from about the tip of her right thumb down to the top edge of their kneecaps - the banding and smearing. 

Thanks!

I suggest to use the Clone Tool and the Healing Tool. Some corrections done :

For the glitch itself, if you are patient:

* Copy the shifted area to a new layer
* Use my ofn-layer-tiles script to cut the layer into 1px-high horizontal strips (width: width of layer, height: 1px)
* Using the Move tool shift the layers one by one

Thanks, I'll give it a try - where should I put the extracted ofn-tiles.py file - the python2.7 folder?

Ofnuts, good idea to solve this problem with the 'ofn-layer-tiles' script. I've tried the workflow and it's easy to do. For larger distortion, a path to find the correct curve can be useful. Thanks for this tip.
