What should I do if my hip joint has ischemic necrosis and sometimes my knees hurt when walking?

Patient's question:

The doctor doesn't know what's going on. I have avascular necrosis of the femoral head, and sometimes my knees hurt when I walk. Also, my home is, so every time I go up and down the stairs, I feel extra pain. How should I be treated?

Doctor's answer:

Dear Consultee,
First, currently, the clinical diagnosis and treatment of avascular necrosis of the femoral head are still based on femoral head replacement surgery, as rigorous treatment does not have a particularly effective effect on this disease itself. It is recommended that you return to the orthopedics department of your local hospital for a follow-up visit, take an X-ray of the femoral head, and assess the extent of the avascular necrosis. Then, determine the appropriate material for the femoral head replacement surgery.
