Orthopaedic Surgeon,  's  Response
Hello,

As you told that you are born with a dislocated hip, I want to know these further:

1. whats your current age
2. do you have both hips dislocated
3. do you have undergone any surgical procedure
4. what treatment would you take till now
5. do you feel numbness and paraesthesia in limb

Treatment solely depends on your current hip joint status, we need an MRI scan to plan treatment.

However, if you are middle-aged or older one we will go for a total hip replacement straight away, and if you are younger one we have to plan according to your MRI scan.

You can take analgesics but that is not the treatment.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Jaideep Gaver, Orthopaedic Surgeon
