What Causes Tremors In The Legs After A Hip Fracture?
My husband fractured his hip back in May. They let it heal on its own with no weight on it for 10 weeks. He is now waking with a cane and getting PT. He is having tremors in his legs . His legs just start shaking at various times. Is he doing too much
It is due to prolonged rest for bone healing..muscle of knee,thighs hamstrings lose tone and strainbearing capacity due to loss of normal activity and exercise.just so weeks of physical therapy,graded exercises will gradually regain muscle strength.he may take Doloneurobion for 3 weeks,calcium,vitamins D supplements.Get lots of Evita/almond oil massage
