was this conversation helpful?

Answered by Dr. Rufus Vasanth Raj

At 70 years, Neck of femur fracture needs surgery. Depending on the pre injury activity level we can plan either Total hip Replacement or Hemiarthroplasty (Partial Hip Replacement) 

Its better to operate as early as possible and make sure she is mobilised. Its not advisable to keep her on bed as she can start getting all sorts of complications like bed sores, Chest infections, UTI, DVT, PE Etc

I'm a 18 year old female and I've been having cramps in my left hand, mainly from elbow under to wrist and my fingers feel kind of stiff. It happened for the first time 3/4 days ago and went away automatically in about 20 mins. It happened twice today and again went on it's own. Nothing done to trigger it. A bit of neck pain. Have generalised anxiety disorder and currently tapering off of Paxidep 12.5 . The cramps kind of feel like weakness and dull ache. I can't call it painful as it does not cause pain but a bit uncomfortable.
