Hip Resurfacing

The potential benefit of hip resurfacing includes lesser bone removal and reduced risk of hip dislocation, unlike in THR. While Haboush brought forth polymethylmethacrylate for insertion of hip endoprostheses, Charnley popularised using bone cement for hip resurfacing. Hip resurfacing is generally intended for the younger patients diagnosed with degenerative joint disease.

Unable to bend leg

My mother, Rubina Malik, is 57 years old and has diabetes. She was enrolled in Practo’s Diabetes Reversal Program. Her blood sugar readings from yesterday were: Fasting/empty stomach: 123 mg/dL Post-dinner: 188 mg/dL She weighs around 54 kg and goes for a walk twice a day. She is currently experiencing a problem in her left thigh/leg. She feels a tightness in the thigh, and she is unable to bend the leg properly. She also feels as if the veins or nerves in that area are under extreme pressure and might burst. The sensation is quite uncomfortable. We consulted a local orthopedic specialist in Ratlam.

We want to understand what could be causing this problem and, most importantly, whether t
