How Can Severe Pain In The Leg After A Fracture Be Treated?
Hi my boyfriend has broke his femur and he now has titanium rods and pins going from his femur down to his leg this has been down about two years now and he is still in alot off pain to where he can t walk sometimes and he gets to the point to where he hurts so bad that he is throwing up what is causing him to be in so much pain
The excessive pain even after the fracture has healed can be due to the implants. He needs to get an X-ray done to see if the implants need to be removed.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Praveen Tayal, Orthopaedic Surgeon
