Question

What Are the Symptoms of Hip Dysplasia?

Answer

The symptoms of hip dysplasia may include pain, difficulty sleeping at night, and overall discomfort. A friend recently experienced this situation and was hospitalized for a period. During a visit, he reported feeling pain and sleeplessness at night, which may be related to calcium deficiency. It is recommended to supplement with calcium, especially by consuming calcium-rich foods such as yogurt, which not only provides calcium but also aids in intestinal health. However, for your condition, surgical treatment may need to be considered, and conservative treatments such as manipulative reduction under anesthesia and the application of a figure-of-eight cast can be tried first. Surgical treatment is usually recommended for those 18 months and older.
