Patient's question:
My relative is an old bachelor. These past few days, he has been saying his legs hurt so badly that sometimes he can't even walk. Today, we took him to the hospital. The doctor conducted a thorough examination and said he has femoral head ischemic necrosis. I would like to consult about this: what kind of medication is needed to treat right femoral head ischemic necrosis?Doctor's answer:
If the right femoral head ischemic necrosis reappears, it may cause swelling and pain around the right hip joint again. This could also affect walking. Slight improper exertion or prolonged sitting may make the pain more pronounced. Mainly, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs can be taken, and extracorporeal high-pressure current therapy can be combined. It is also possible to consult traditional Chinese medicine and use some blood-activating and blood-stasis-resolving Chinese herbal medicines.
