Long time since I’ve been here. Merry Christmas to all!
about 3 1/3weeks ago I went to stand up from the table and my right leg (that had been revised after having an antibiotic spacer in due to infection in my femur) just gave out on me. Sudden severe pain to the point I came up with some extremely colorful expletives! Pain mostly in groin but also front of thigh. About two weeks ago I went to local urgent care as in FL not by my OS and was told that no fractures and implant is in place.
Dr there felt I’d somehow irritated my him and to rest it, ice and elevate. Prescribed Voltaren 4x/day. Said if doesn’t resolve that I’d need an MRI.
Now still having pain to point that at times I can barely walk. No fever. Front part of thigh is numb and pain goes from groin to front of thigh. Can’t lay with that leg flat without substantial pain.
I do have a number of herniated discs in lumbar spine down and I don’t know if spine related (Back hurts too) or if my hip is messed up.
question after this long winded explanation is, is it possible for the hip to have popped out of the socket then popped in again tearing something?
