[@myrahouse2368]

I fell off a ladder 🪜 onto concrete I went to bed for 4 days couldn’t walk. The bruise was absolutely huge! on my hip side. 8 days later I can walk bruise has diminished but I have this massive lump on my side 😳😮‍💨 I’ve not gone Hospital or doctors because it’s difficult to see a doctor and the waiting at the hospital is 4 hrs 🤯 I can walk I just am hoping it will return to normal. I’ve taken a few tumbles of Horses so think that’s why I coped. The rush of adrenaline was scary 😟 I thought my heart was going to explode 🤯 I think 🤔 I may have to get an X-ray.

Can early stage of avascular necrosis manifest as non union after ORIF surgery?

[@jamiehaughey-tb1uk]

Good afternoon. Would you give me permission to use your video in an education course for carers and therapist? Thanks Jamie

[@alice-mae9973]

I broke my femoral neck in April 2023 during army training, I’m only 26 so surgeon performed ORIF surgery with metal screws. I am nearly 7 months post op and still in pain when walking / weight bearing on the affected leg. I am following my physios advice and the follow up X-rays have shown no signs of AVN. Is it normal to still be in pain?? Will I ever be able to run / train properly again? Any advice or if anyone has been through anything similar would really appreciate it

[@joecelpolinag8171]

had my femoral neck total displaced last aug 16 last year and underwent surgery (fixation with 3 titanium screws . I was able to walk just in 2 & 1/2 months with limping. at 3rd month I was able to go to work .

They can have epidural anesthetic, which is much safer than a general anesthetic.

I had a grade 3 fracture of the intra capsular. Pinned back together 20months ago. Doctors said blood supply should be ok, but always risk on AN, hopefully not 🙏

Do impacted fractures need surgery

[@yaniswasila2799]

Hi there, thank you for your video which is very helpful to better understand the hip fracture. I am 38yo and I got my right femoral neck severely broken after a simple fall during a basketball game in July 2022...It is a Garden IV intracapsular fracture and the surgeons did an osteosynthetis (given my young age instead of a total hip replacement). It's been now 6 months and there is luckily no sign of avascular necrosis although I still have pains (bearable though). Do you think there is still a high risk for me to get an AVN even later?

[@speedingAtI94]

hang in there. I just got the same surgery 3 days ago. After much research, it seems that the risk of AVN can last 2 years. Groin pain is the sign of dying femoral head. There were cases where the bones didn't union until 2 years have passed. As long as the hardware is stable, I think there is always hope.

[@sgb.808]

@@speedingAtI94 are you guys still ok?

[@speedingAtI94]

@@sgb.808 I have mostly recovered. I am hoping to have the implant removed since it still brothers me.

[@sgb.808]

@@speedingAtI94 very good to hear, so no AVN even though u had a garden 3-4 type fracture?

[@speedingAtI94]

@@sgb.808 I don't know my fracture classification but it was not displaced while slightly impacted. It's not known whether there is avn yet. This is also the reason why I want to have the implant removed. There is a recent paper that shows benefit of removing implant in reducing the chance of avn.

[@yogayantra]

thanks a lot for all your videos. You say "hip fracture" where what I see is a femur fracture. So how do you call a real hip fracture in American language. I can understand a "total hip" replacement though because it also involves the acetabulum, I am just surprised. In Latin languages it would be "femoral neck" fracture.

[@ZeroToFinals]

you are correct, calling it a "hip fracture" is not particularly accurate.
