In stage 1, the important thing is to avoid the femoral head getting worse. Avoid jumping, avoid sports and any medications, apart from simple painkillers. Once the blood supply gets better to the femoral head, then it will slowly improve. There is no way to shorten this, nature needs time to heal.
