Leg got fractured
My uncle had an accident yesterday and got his leg and hip fractured. Je already had a plate placed inside the leg and now the same leg got fractured.
The doctor is saying that his legs and hips cannot be plastered and need to heal over time of 6 months.
He is suggesting an Ostospray which is a nasal spray as injection would cause him a high blood pressure.
Can anyone suggest if Ostospray has any side effects and is it safe to use??
Also I have attached the x-ray and prescription can you please suggest some other alternative to this??

Hip fracture seems old then where did he get fresh fracture .
There is small fracture line above the upper end of plate which can be treated nonsurgically also with rest , brace and non weight bearing with medications .
