Can avascular necrosis of the femoral head be treated with minimally invasive surgery?

Patient's question:

Always uncomfortable, feeling bad, can't sleep. Can avascular necrosis of the femoral head be treated with minimally invasive surgery?

Doctor's answer:

General femoral head ischemic necrosis can be treated with minimally invasive surgery, which can stabilize blood supply. If the condition is mild, various physical therapies can also be attempted to stabilize blood supply, such as medium-frequency acupuncture, moxibustion with infrared light, in addition to acupuncture and massage. It is also essential to avoid overexertion in daily life. However, if the condition is severe, direct surgical intervention may be necessary to perform joint replacement surgery.
