(F,47) I fractured my left femur 10 months ago. doctors have done plate fixation with bone grafting because nail was not going inside my bone due to osteoporosis(as doctor said). Now after 10 months doctor said that it is non union. So I consult two more doctors. One doctor said they have to do remove the plate and re operate with nail or plate fixation and bone grafting and One doctor said that there is less chance of bone joining even after refixation. So they suggested Total Hip Replacement. I am very confused what should I do. Please see my xray and suggest me what is best. One xray is latest. One is when I fall.
Thankyou

I have a fibula head fracture six weeks ago and also injury at the knee joint. Now the fracture is likely healed and no pain at the fibula head. But during walking and when putting pressure on the knee joint there is pain at the knee joint specially at the patella region. What can be done?
Is surgery really needed for this.
pls give your opinion. dr was talking about inserting plates.
thanking u in advance. i want second opinion.
