Patient's question:
Doctor, my relative's uncle was diagnosed with avascular necrosis of the femoral head a few weeks ago. I heard from my mom that his family is planning to give him harsh treatment. Could you tell me what the best harsh treatment methods are for avascular necrosis of the femoral head?Doctor's answer:
The femoral head reappears with ischemic necrosis, which mainly causes swelling and pain in the surrounding area. If it is not severe, it can be decided to undergo rigorous treatment, mainly by taking some non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. At the same time, extracorporeal high-pressure current can be performed, and acupuncture can be used in combination. Additionally, attention should be paid to preventing cold in the hip joint, increasing the load on the hip joint, and using more hot towels for cold compress and massage. Rehabilitation exercises should also be performed.
