I fell and broke my Greater Trochanter in May. I’m a 32-year-old amputee with bad bone health and landed on my hip/femur on the amputation side when I fell in the bathroom. I’m used to extreme pain, but this was one of the worst I’ve experienced. Ironically, this saved my life because it turned out that I was in the end stages of Graves’ Disease without even knowing it. Was told I would’ve died by the end of summer without the fall
I just had my surgery today, and man I am hurting quite a bit! but the doctors were amazing and even gave me a nerve block before surgery. I fell down the stairs and landed on my butt. this happens kinda often bc I'm clumsy, so I tried to "walk it off" for a week until I physically couldn't bear weight anymore. found out shortly before my vitamin D was really low, and even though I'm 31 years old, I had a doctor tell me I have the health problems of an 80 year old. to which I laughed because he didn't even know I already had dentures, too! I just hope that the healing process goes okay for me because I'm young
i had garden 4 ,total displacement of femoral neck. i was able to walk in just 2 & 1/2 months with limping. 13 months now after my surgery and fully recovered
@harshnama5168 sorry for what happened to you. I had the same surgery a month ago with 3 screws. Could you tell how many months it would take for you for complete recovery? Post recovery can we walk like we do before?
great review , yet if you could make more focus on common muscle incisions with the surgeries ,it highly effects the exercises and the stats overall...also another question that i had many times but was't able to contact a surgeon about it :is it normal for the rods to be out of the bones ?as in the neck of femur Xray i saw the rods in the neck of femur going out of the greater trochanter .....
Hello, I really found your video so informative thank you so much. I just had a hip fracture(subtrochanteric fracture)and now it's been one week after having a pfn surgery, i have started the physical therapy and i am doing exercises 2 hours everyday but its hurting soo much and I'm wondering if i should tell my physical therapist to go easy on me or if it's the best for me to recover soon?😢 I am 28 years old and i come from Africa, thank you.
I am 17 year old and i have graden 2 fracture i fell from bicycle also i had a major spine tumor surgery 4 years ago which affected my right leg power but i recovered from the spine surgery and was able to walk but now after i fell from bicycle i have lost 80% power of right leg and have my fracture surgery tomorrow can i walk again and can power of my right leg come back

Doctor suggested to take complete bed rest for 4 weeks am from bangladesh can u please let me know what should i do now.
Hi Khalid, great video, my first placement was in a neck of femur ward. Just wanted to know your thoughts regarding the use of total hip precautions in many trusts, despite recent evidence showing contradicting them. Some of the exercises you showed could conflict with precautions
Thank you so much MK I appreciate your kind words Yes absolutely, it’s really interesting, in recent times we have seen more and more surgeons suggesting that they are not necessary and they do not include them in post op instructions Ultimately as a surgeon you become responsible for the stability of your patient’s new hip and so whilst it may reduce function a little, I can understand why some surgeons continue to implement them from a protection point of view rather than believing that they are effective and necessary to prevent dislocation
Hi Maureen! I hope you had physiotherapy in hospital? If so please do contact your hospital team so that they can arrange for you to have physiotherapy ongoing as well 🙏🏼
Hi khalid I fell of a push bike and landed on my hip Friday night. Had surgery Saturday for screws or something, I’m 32 and I’m really scared cos a lot of things in google say it’s bad. I walked a little this morning on crutches but can’t lift that leg on its own really scared of what’s to come
Hello Sir, My age is 34, I had an accident (self fall) and just done with the femoral neck surgery (garden 2) with CC screws and there is no other injuries on body apart from this. Doctor suggested 30 days bed rest and then they will check the status. Now it's my 18th day and I'm on bed only since 18 days. I have no other health issues. So my question is will it be a very serious issues for me in future? Won't I be normal and strong like before? Please guide and tell me your view on this .
Same thing happend to me sir please tell me how much time it will take to recover and after recover i will Be alright like befor or else i need to suffer my whole life please tell me sir i am very tensed about this
@@kissnaablogs4122 Hello, It's been almost 5 months since my accident and surgery. I can walk normally as before. No pain like before. I'm almost 95% recovered and I can ride a bike also, and within a month I will be as normal as before. So the thing is in starting stage or when we are on complete bed rest it's normal that we think about it so much and lot of questions wondering in our mind but trust me it's not as tough or difficult as it's looks in starting so please have a patience, you will be all okay one day. But please follow your doctor take medicine on time and eat food, vegetables , fruits and non-veg those are having calcium, protine, vitamines. Get well soon.
@@marknogaliza9431 I'm completely recovered. It's almost 11 months. But there is a normal pain, your leg can't take 100% weight when you are standing for longer time. Because the muscle will take a time to be strong as before. But everything is normal now, doctor advised me not to play sports, and suggested some exercises and advised to maintain a weight.
I broke the ball of my hip joint in half right in the middle of the ball needless to say I had to have a total hip replacement. I thought I bruised my muscle and hobbled around on crutches for 3 weeks it wasn’t until I came down with Covid pneumonia and ended up in ICU that I got the hip fixed. I was 68 at the time and have severe osteoporosis. I will say one thing the hip replacement was so much easier the. My knee replacement.
My mother age 83 yrs...had garden 1....she was suggested to take rest for 6 weeks....now asked to walk with the help of walker.... What exercise to be done before that
My mother had garden 2 fractuer last 15 days ago..doctor suggest to opearte nd change ta ball.bt my mother has paralysis in her left leg nd garden 2 happen on that leg.she has diabetic nd presser also.so suegery is very critical for her.now what will we do? Plz suggest😢
She is stareted walking from may month with the help of walker.now she is doing well nd stsrted cooking.bt she is unable to walk with out waker.when ever she walks she needs walker.
I broke both sides of my neck 4 weeks ago. I am back to normal as in walking and doing stuff but I am limited with neck brace. Sleeping sucks and I usually don’t get much. For many reasons. The neck brace being one and the other the fear I won’t wake up again.
@@ClinicalPhysio thank you I am I got released yesterday from the hospital finally I'm homeee but unable to walk till it heals so for now it's crutches time for me.

I had garden 2, and fixed by using a single cannulated screw, and now had been pull out that screw from my bones,but i'm cant bendinh my legs
Hi Khalid, great video, my first placement was in a neck of femur ward.
Just wanted to know your thoughts regarding the use of total hip precautions in many trusts, despite recent evidence showing contradicting them.
Some of the exercises you showed could conflict with precautions
Thank you so much MK I appreciate your kind words
Yes absolutely, it’s really interesting, in recent times we have seen more and more surgeons suggesting that they are not necessary and they do not include them in post op instructions
Ultimately as a surgeon you become responsible for the stability of your patient’s new hip and so whilst it may reduce function a little, I can understand why some surgeons continue to implement them from a protection point of view rather than believing that they are effective and necessary to prevent dislocation
Are the screws usually removed from the bone after healing?
No they normally stay for life
I had garden 3 wuth 3 screws one week ago. Do i wait until the fracture heals to start therapy ?
Hi Maureen!
I hope you had physiotherapy in hospital? If so please do contact your hospital team so that they can arrange for you to have physiotherapy ongoing as well 🙏🏼

Thanks for sharing, I have a question my Mother is 88 years old and she falls under Garden 1 or 2. What will be the management without surgery.
Would also like to know. Is there a greater increase of blood flow issues with conservative/non-surgical treatment?
