Hip Fracture

1 in 4 people will ultimately die from complications caused by a hip fracture. Each year in the United States, there are 350,000 hip fractures.

90% of hip fractures occur due to direct impact against the hip joint, usually as a result of a fall. Elderly people are at a greater risk of hoi fracture because of the weakening of their bones due to osteoporosis.

A vascular necrosis is another cause of degeneration of the hip joint. Sometimes a fracture or dislocation will cause damage to blood vessels. In this condition, the femoral head or the ball portion loses a part of its blood supply and actually dies. This leads to a collapse of the femoral head and degeneration of the joint.

Precautions for the elderly to take to avoid falls that may result in hip fractures are; a healthy diet that will help strengthen bones including calcium and vitamin D; A regular exercise program; A safe living area and a regular eye test to help avoid hazardous objects.

Sciatica is a diagnosis often given out by a doctor. However, without determining the precise cause of the sciatica, it's nearly impossible to provide an effective, highly medically proven treatment. Often times, pain killers or anti-inflammatory medications are given to mask the symptoms. Or, recommendations to rest or even perform certain exercises are given that can actually aggravate the condition, making the underlying problem far worse. Dr. Bruce Bell, DC, QME of the South Coast Spine Center in San Diego, CA recognizes the vital importance of correctly diagnosing the cause of sciatica before prescribing treatment. Once the cause of pain is correctly identified, only then can an effective treatment protocol be recommended. If you suffer from sciatica and haven't been told what's causing it or how to treat it properly, contact Dr. Bell's office today.
