Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
i hurt my butt this afternoon, fell on it in back yard (cement) I have had two rt hip replacements and a left last october. Pain is strong, i ve iced for about 45 min and take ibubrofen, still in alot of pain. How long should I wait if pain continues to contact a doctor? I m a 52 year old women , average weight.
if the pain is persistent and progressive, an urgent consult with your doctor, preferably with your orthopedic surgeon is best especially if you have history of surgery. diagnostics such as x-rays and scan and management will be directed accordingly.
hope this helps.
