Primary or idiopathic in which no cause can be determined.
High school. Secondary osteoarthritis will lead to a disease or disorder that disrupts the Biomechanics of the hip joint or directly damages the cartilage of the hip.
Perthes congenital disease capital dislocationSlipped epiphysisAvascular femoral necrosisCoxa planaInfection are examples of such conditions Fractures and dislocation of the hipThe main symptoms are
pain in the hip, which is caused by the movement and is relived by muscle spasms and reststiffness may be presentpain can also be felt in the knee joint from the same side (called) the Member can be shortenedmovements of the hip may be limited, in one or more directionsX-rays of the joints of the hip, taken in two planes can confirm the diagnosisand are useful to exclude other conditions, mimicking the hip osteoarthritis. They will be evidence of thinning of cartilage (decrease the space between the head and acetabulum), of the adjacent bone density change and new training of bone (osteophyte).
OSTEOARTHRITIS OF THE HIP
Objective of treatment is relief of the painCorrection of any mobility deformityMaintaining
Treatment guidelines will be decided by
Severity of the diseaseExpectations of the patientPresence of associated diseases and disordersIn early and mild illness, I prescribe simple analgesics, use heat and exercises easy to maintain mobility and relieve the pain. Weight loss is also useful in reducing the burden in the hip joint. Load can be reduced, with a cane in the hand opposite by walking.
NSAIDs (such as aspirin nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, diclofenac, ibuprofen) Main role of the drugs is to reduce inflammation and provide relief of pain. They do not alter the progression of the disease. They have many side effects. They should be used as sparingly as possible. More dangerous is gastric ulceration and bleeding. I prescribe blockers pump protons (reduce the chances of gastric ulceration) with NSAIDs to my patients. If I do not prescribe blockers pump Proton eventually almost all patients complain of pain in the stomach, combustion and nausea.
Tramadol hydrochloride is a central analgesic action (it is on the central nervous system). It is useful in patients who are contraindicated NSAIDs. It does cause ulceration, bleeding and gastric kidney damage. Therefore, it has important drug interactions should be used under careful medical supervision. Its combination with paracetamol is as effective as NSAIDs.
Glucosamine is also effective in this disease. Click here to learn more.
Diacerein gives good results. Know the dose and duration of the treatment by clicking here.
From my experience, the practice of YOGA, can provide great relief, patients with osteoarthritis of the hip. Various asanas (poses) to help hip rigidity are
BHARADVAJASANA (Chair of TWIST pose and it's variants) MARICYASANA (permanent TWIST) TRIKONASANA (TRIANGLE variants pose and is) PARSVAKONASANA (side ANGLE pose) VIRBHADRASANA (Warrior pose) PADANGUSTHASANA (leg RAISING pose and it's variants)Discover the different poses of yoga to a certified yoga instructor in your area.
Various osteotomies (surgical procedure in which a cut is made in the bone, bone pieces are then modified and then set the path with plate, nails or fixing) have been described in the books of text for hip osteoarthritis. Now, they are only shown in the hip joints which are censured and who are still developing osteoarthritis. It is significantly delay or prevent the onset of osteoarthritis of the hip in these patients.
In today's modern world, TJA became gold, in the treatment of hip osteoarthritis. With the availability of materials and better quality design in implants, artificial hip survival has increased considerably. If any revision surgery is required, which is also now much easier. Therefore if your doctor recommends hip replacement, then go ahead. Today, it is the best choice.
What is the role of hyaluronic acid injections in hip osteoarthritis?
Hyaluronic acid has no efficacy in this disease. It is not recommended.
How long a replaced the artificial hip joint by is expected to last?
More than 20 years in surgery carried out by expert hands.
What the new technique of surface Arthroplasty (ASR)?
The new technique to show the results promising but long-term (more than 20 years old) followed is still to come. It is preferable for young patients where it preserves more than total hip bone.
