Hello

As your history your dad is having very low immunity and general condition of his vital organs is not functioning at optimal level .
You need to improve immunity by balanced diet,protein supplement ,if required intravenous fluids,fresh fruits and vegetables.

As fracture is operated now physiotherapy protocol is important along with calcium and vit supplement.
Alcohol should be stopped completely,diabetes should be maintained by insulin supplement.

Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.

Wishing you good health.

Take care
