dislocated my hip. Was at home alone in the far back room. With my cell phone at the front of the house. Took me over an hour to painfully work my way to my cell phone. (Would not wish this on anyone) In the ER they took me upstairs and moved me onto an ex-ray table to get pictures. After they reduced the hip, they ROLLED in an ex-ray machine and took the picture without having to move me... Why didn't they use that machine the first time. The extra pain I was put through was not needed. Also, the waited over an hour, and after ex-ray to give me anything for pain. They should have been able to give me pain medicine in ambulance. A dislocated hip is very painful.
My left hip was replaced in 2015. Still had lots of pain and found a year later that the spike that goes into the femur was loose and had to get a second replacement a year later (2016) with a thicker, longer spike (I call it a spike but it's the piece of metal that goes into the femur leg bone and has the ball attached). Because this second procedure was done so close in time to the first, it loosened all the muscles and tendons up. About 8 months later, I was sitting in my recliner and my hip popped out. My wife called emergency 911 and I got it reset at a nearby hospital but that was extremely painful. After about 12 more months, I was out on my moored boat (basically a boat tied to a permanent anchor in a bay). After working about 6 hours cleaning it up, I knelt down one last time and the hip popped out again but this time I'm in the middle of the harbor (thankfully I was not out at sea). This time it seemed to take 3 hours to coordinate the harbor patrol and ambulance and get to the hospital that I could see from the boat's mooring. Dislocating my hip was the most painful thing that has happened to me. I've always had very tight hamstrings that cramp frequently. With a dislocated hip, the hamstring would cramp for about 5 minutes, then go away for about 5 minutes, then back to cramping. When the cramping was happening, the pain was brutal. That last incident was 2018 and hopefully now that it's 2024, I'm out of the woods and everything that holds the hip in place has gotten back to normal. It's scary though because for the first time in 10 years, I have multiday offshore sailing trip planned for May.
I had close to 30 total hip dislocations reduced in the ER and 2 open reductions in surgery before they finally got it figured out, all within 10 months and 5 major hip surgeries in those 10 months. I thought i would die after the last surgery. They finally used a ring behind the ball but even that didn't work. They used a larger ring, probably hula hoop size but it's still good 2 years later. Now it's time to get the other hip done.😥
Awsom... nice and slow and patient with out screaming.
Patient was probably sedated
@@rudy6222 patients can still talk and scream even when sedated.
General anesthesia

The kind of relief that guy must be feeling now. Wow
I believe that the patient was a woman
Cuando se luxan estas protesis podras reducirlas pero si no se corrige la orientacion de los implantes invariablemente se volveran a luxar
I just got back from the ER having this done.
