Pain following hip dislocation |
The
hip joint is a a very stable joint, made that way in part by massive
ligaments. Therefore the amount of forces required to dislocate a
hip is great
and usually found in car accidents, falls from high places, and
sports injuries.
The most common hip dislocations occur posteriorly
such as in sports like football, rugby, and soccer, the individual is hit in the
front of the thigh, forcing the thigh/hip complex backward, resulting in hip
dislocations. This tears the ligamentum teres and the posterior capsule.
Once the hip is surgically reset (put back in
place), the patient must use crutches for two weeks after the injury. Protected
weight-bearing is continued for two to six months, depending on the surgeon's
school of thought.
Generally, the patient is not allowed to return to athletics for a minimum of
three months. Long-term consequences of posterior hip dislocations can include
sciatic
nerve injury,
avascular necrosis of the
femoral head (hip joint damage
due to decreased blood supply), and significant arthritis and
cartilage damage.
If a patient sustained enough force to
fracture a
bone, it can be assumed that
ligament damage also occurred. Even if the bone
heals, there is no guarantee that the ligaments will also heal. As a matter of
fact, it is more likely, in such a case, that the ligaments will not heal
completely.
A joint dislocation significantly disrupts all the structures that
support the joint. We recommend
Prolotherapy after any joint dislocation occurs.
If the athlete desires to get back to athletics as soon as possible, then weekly
or biweekly
Prolotherapy is given, and often with
strong proliferant solutions.
Often, after just a few Prolotherapy sessions, workouts may begin. A total of
four to six Prolotherapy sessions are usually required to resolve the joint
weakness. Prolotherapy, in this case, can speed the recovery process, allowing
an athlete to return to playing sooner than with the traditional route. More
importantly, the athlete comes back with a stronger hip.
