hi, good morning, my mother aged 80, with single body/weight of 40 kg aprox, she got sleeped in kitchen six month back, and during the consultation with local orhto doctor, suggested for palster and to hang brick for positioning of the joint at leg, however she did not get proper joint and now she had pain in leg and not walk proper, can any remady for that
Hello, It looks that most probably your mother had fracture near knee joint. Your local or tho doctor put traction and applied plaster. He had decided for this conservative mode of treatment due to her age and low weight. This was the need of that time as she was not fit for surgery or other mode of treatment. Probably her fracture may be mildly misaligned. This may be the one of the cause of her pain or there may be associated weakness in her bones and muscles. In my routine OLD, I used to have an X-ray of affected part to rule out disturbance in geometry of joint. In such case she may use custom-made braces. You may take help of an orthotic expert for this. Your orthopedic doctor may prescribe this after detail examination. For muscle weakness, a physiotherapist can help her with exercises like qua Chat Doctor. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
