Data from studies indicate that thigh pain is a significant complication after successful cementless total hip replacement surgery. In most cases, reported symptoms are mild to moderate, resolve spontaneously or do not progress, and require little or no therapeutic intervention.

* Thigh pain after hip replacement may be mild to moderate, 

   Thigh pain after hip replacement,  may or may not require therapeutic intervention 
* Usually some discomfort in the hip and thigh region is common as body adjusts to the changes made in that area.
* Thigh pain after surgery may be due to dislocation of the implant 
* Or due to fracture around the implant 
* Thigh pain may also be due to changes in the length of the leg, some exercises will help to increase the mobility and strength 
* If thigh pain is more while walk and ok at rest, then it might be due to loode acetabular cup component.
* In some cases it may be due to bone prosthesis micromotion
* Excess stress transfer to the femur bone 
* Tendonitis I.e. inflammation around the tendons can cause thigh pain
* stress fractures, 
* Labral tears
* Cartilage/ tendon tears
* Periosteal irritation
* If thigh pain is immediately after hip surgery few points to be ruled out are
- subtle infection 
- femur fracture
- loose implants that doesn't allow bone to grow into the implant due to too much of micro motion

Good morning. I was doing high jump in a school,and my leg ankle removed and got my leg a little short. Can it be resolved be straighten it and make it balanced with the other one

Male | 34

You seem to have dislocated your ankle, which can give your leg a longer impression. Such occurrences are observed when the bones in your ankle are misplaced. To correct this, you should go to an orthopedist who can put the bones back into the right place. A splint or a brace may be used by them to enable your ankle to recover properly. Adhering to their recommendations is critical if you want your leg to be straightened and aligned with your other leg. Rest, elevate your leg, and stay away from putting weight on it until you see a doctor.

I got fracture on ankel. it will completed 14days can I walk slowly

Male | 20

Let me suggest that you never move any weight on your ankle until it is completely healed. Even slow walking puts too much pressure on the fracture, and it can still cause more injury.Please follow your doctor's advice

I am abhishek yadav.my problem is Acl partial tear. I am Indian army.can I running as before after surgery.and how many cost of surgery and how many time after complete recovery

Male | 27

Acupuncture points help in rehabilitation of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) . Using the local and distal points in acupuncture, it helps in repair of ligaments and reduces the rehabilitation time.
Acupuncture combined with seed and magnet therapy, moxibustion have miraculously helped in treating ACL tear naturally I.e without surgery.
One can lead a normal life once a patient is pain free.
The treatment time depends on the severity of the patient but nonetheless 12- 15 sessions will be required which will help reduce the pain and repair the ligament. Further course of treatment can be advised post the knee scan.

Hello doctor I am currently on fluoxetine 40mg since last 2 years Yesterday i had a small accident and my hand is aching a lot My physician has prescribed 50mg tramadol But i have read on google that tramadol and fluoxetine cannot be taken together Please help what to do??

Male | 25

Although fluoxetine and tramadol are both related to chemical levels in the brain, it is still not safe to mix them. In other words, their simultaneous consumption can intensify the likelihood of serotonin syndrome, a critical ailment that manifests symptoms such as confusion, sweating, and fast heartbeat. The best course of action would be for your physician to advise you on alternative pain relief options that are safe for you.

Male | 65

If your belly fe­els upset after taking me­dicine for leg pain, that's normal. Nausea and tire­dness can occur due to certain drugs. Whe­n you consume lunch and feel ill, your body re­acts to the medication. Ensure hydrating we­ll and eating smaller, lighter me­als until you feel better.
