Doctor's answer:

Childhood femoral head necrosis is an self-limiting disease, with a natural course lasting approximately 2.5-3.5 years. In early and middle-stage patients, 90% can achieve good outcomes through conservative treatment. For late-stage patients with dislocation, surgical treatment is recommended. The most common complications of childhood femoral head necrosis in adulthood are flat hip and lower limb shortening deformity. The occurrence of pediatric orthopedic diseases severely impacts patients' lives. In addition to symptomatic treatment, patients need to pay close attention to daily care. It is important to protect the affected area, maintain a balanced diet, and avoid or reduce the risk of disease onset.
