Hello Dr. I am from India, Greetings, I had Stage-2 AVN and have had core decompression surgery along with bone marrow injection 7months ago but I don’t have any relief from the pain yet. Is there any other treatment available that I can have for this? Please help.

Gud day doc my right hip got avascular necrosis what is your advice for me?New subscriber thanks.

[@dr.markleregenerativeortho9552]

Evening Alex - sorry to hear ..AVN is serious and would recommend a an evaluation with myself or our team to discuss options - such as decompression / bone marrow concentrate injection depending on staging of the AVN because ultimately could need a joint replacement which the goal is to avoid the need for such as big surgery if we dont have to

[@marywoll2828]

My husband has a v n of his left hip and is waiting for replacement. He has a knot in his left thigh muscle and has lost a lot of muscle in that leg around the knee. Now his pops when he rolls over or when moves the kneecap he says in grinds.he experiences pain in the middle of his leg worse than the joints.his ankle is also painful. Could this be als or something else ? or are these consistent with other cases?

@@marywoll2828 Hello Mary - sorry to hear! If the cause of the AVN has not been found then would make sure they image multiple areas - need to have in-depth evaluation and potentially additional MRIs on these areas to ensure AVN has not spread to other areas..... if you'd like me to look at his MRI, you can contact our office and can set up a tele med evaluation to stage his AVN and potentially give advise on how to improve before the THA is needed...all the best!
