Swollen Hips, Burning Sharp Pains In Leg, Leg Broke Last Week. What Should Be Done?
hi I broke my leg last week and since then my hip is swollen and im getting burning sharp pains on the upper leg, I also get feelings of electric shocks I went to the hospital yesterday to get a new cast and mentioned this to them but they said its probably just where I was carrying around the cast or swollen where I fell over, im not so sure as im in agony with it is there anything else it could be.

HI
Thank for choosing HCM, I think you better go for re assessment the injury site, x-ray study would be much better to see the bony structure, and soft tissue inflammation, discuss the problem with ortho-surgeon meanwhile take complete rest, have nice day.
