Suggest Remedy For Dislocations Of Artificial Hip With Numbness In Foot

Hi, I recently had two dislocations of my artificial hip. The first time I did great with no symptoms but didn t pay attn to precautions (I m 44 and very active). The last dislocation was 8/24. I have felt fine since then--no pain. Today was the first day I tried to exercise on my elliptical. After about five minutes, my foot became numb and cool. I am praying this will get better with time? It isn t numb just with walking, only exercise. Will this go away with time? Thank you!

Hello,

The dislocated hip may be causing nerve compression and which may be the cause for numbness. Consult an orthopedic and get evaluated.
