Patient's question:
The child cannot crouch and is timid and fearful. They do not like sports.Doctor's answer:
Hello, it is recommended to further check, such as the hip joint, to see if it is normal. For primary hip osteoarthritis, non-surgical treatment should be used as much as possible, such as appropriate rest and medication. Medication includes non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, joint cartilage protectants, and traditional Chinese medicine. On the other hand, for secondary hip osteoarthritis, once pain or joint damage occurs, the progression of the disease is rapid, and non-surgical treatment is often ineffective. If non-surgical treatment is delayed, the best surgical opportunity may be lost. Therefore, surgical treatment should be performed for secondary hip osteoarthritis.
