summary

Avascular necrosis of the femoral head is a common orthopedic disease, which brings great burden and psychological pressure to patients, and their families are also under pressure. We not only need to treat osteonecrosis of the femoral head, but also use my own experience to tell you about the treatment of osteonecrosis of the femoral head in the elderly.

Treatment of femoral head necrosis in the elderly

First, some people may use hormone drugs when they are treated, but it is worth noting that in the treatment of some diseases, especially some painful diseases, hormone drugs should be used as little as possible. And in order to best avoid femoral head damage, we must strengthen the hip self-protection consciousness.

Second: adhere to the treatment according to the course of treatment, do not abuse other drugs and means for the treatment of femoral head necrosis. Don't drink, smoke or eat too greasy food. Normal diet but light, rich in nutrition, less fat, more fiber fruits and vegetables, such as some fish, bone soup, vegetables, fruits, Cereals, etc.

Third: osteotomy: remove the necrotic area from the weight-bearing area of the femoral head, and remove the non necrotic area from the weight-bearing area. Clinical osteotomy includes varus or valgus osteotomy, trans trochanteric osteotomy and so on.

matters needing attention

Let me also say: in life, patients should not give up exercise because of illness. They should exercise appropriately according to their own conditions. They should not lie in bed for a long time in order to avoid lower body muscle atrophy.
