Boniva hip fracture
Common Questions and Answers about Boniva hip fracture
boniva
extremely swollen right leg especially around knee joint - could not even bend knee, terrible hip pain and two days later a tooth abscess. What are the chances I can tolerate Boniva once a month? My Endocrinologist wants me to try it.
Is boniva a possible cause of papilloma virus on the eyelid going into the conjunctiva?

It all depends upon what kind of a fracture it is and where the fracture is. And even if tere is no fracture, there could be plenty of other injuries that could result from a fall that would cause pain in that area, but would not prevent the person from being able to walk. It is really annoying when people state such absolutes without bothering to gather any information to support their assertion. Were any x-rays or MRI images or anything done?
Bisphosphonates like Boniva have been associated rarely with uveitis. You would experience ocular pain, blurred vision, light sensitivity, loss of vision and possibly glaucoma if you had uveitis. Your ophthalmologist would be able to tell you right away if you had any uveitis and the Boniva could be discontinued if that were the case.
I noted that for the last several months whenever I took Boniva I had significant swelling under both eyes. Thus, when this past Sunday, 5/23 I developed the papilloma on my left lower eyelid (center) which at first seemed to have a point on top & next day became more elongated I thought Boniva. I would appreciate any feedback as to cause & what possible treatment. It, not very large & seems to be same size this first week.
Hi,
As you know there is a fracture of vertebra, most of the symptoms like pain, inability to walk are due to the same as there is a compression of the nerves. Along with the spinal fracture, there could be an associated fracture of the hip leading to the swelling of the hip and leg , pain and discomfort on walking. Physiotherapy seems to have aggravated your symptoms. Please go for an X ray of the hip joint and consult an orthopaedic surgeon along with the neurologist.
Hi--I had an MRI of the right hip due to right hip pain following some recent trauma. The results were (R) hip joint effusion and bone marrow edema involving the neck and head of the femur. The possibility of underlying occult fracture is suggested. All else normal. Recommended to see a orthropedic specialist. Any opinions as to the meaning of these results and what can a orthro M.D. do?
Hello and thank you for the question. Some people limp after hip surgery post fracture because of weakness in hip abductor muscles or gluteous maximus or gluteous minimus. which stabilize your hips when you walk. Working with a physical therapist after such surgery helps prevent or minimize walking with a limp. Rehabilitation post surgery is very important. I see that your husband did physical therapy but that it didn't prevent limping. That is unfortunate.
He then ordered an MRI which showed a hip fracture and upon further review the fracture...which at that point was a stress fracture...had been apparent in the initial x-ray. So within 2 days of the MRI I had my hip pinned and 10 days later here I am. My doctor said that non weight bearing no driving for 6-8 weeks. So far post op things seem to have gone pretty smoothly but I have been really down and weepy.

If it hurts that bad, get it checked.
After seeing a podiatrist and having a bone scan it was determined that I had a stress fracture in my cuboid bone. During that time I was in the Army and had already been diagnosed with plantar fascistis, heel spur, bone spur in my ankle, and possible osteoarthritis in my midfoot. The doctor said that I could just wear a boot for 3 weeks and then it would be fine. I got out of the Army a few weeks later and when I returned to the States I saw a podiatrist at the VA as I was still in pain.
Over the last several months I have had lower abdominal bloating, gas, and just recently, pain in my left hip. I mentioned this at my last gyn visit several weeks ago and a vaginal ultrasound was performed. There was fluid present (behind my uterus, I believe) and my endometrial stripe was darker than she would have liked. She had me return 7 days after my period to repeat the vag US and there was more fluid and the endometrial stripe was a little better. A CA-125 was drawn which was 51.
a little under a week ago, she was movin her leg, her hip popped. she now has a bruise, that has grown on the inside of her thigh, on the same side. when you move her leg, her hip pops? she sweats, has dizzy spells....
My mother is 70, she broke her hip and has undergone a total hip replacement surgery. 3 weeks after the surgery she suffered a dislocation of the prosthesis. Although there is no fracture and the prosthesis is in good condition, a surgeon has suggested that she needs to undergo a further surgery to modify the prosthesis. This is because, as she suffered a stroke 25 years ago, and has a residual hemiparesis on the hip replacement side, the surgeon thinks that dislocations will reoccur.
