i had a total hip replacement with a DePuy Pennicle hip. The Lateral Femoral Cutaneous Nerve was completely severed. The pain has become unbearable. Now they are recommending Nerve Blocks. I also have elevated chromium and cobalt. Not really high but elevated. Do you think Nerve Blocks will help my pain?
Hello, As what I feel is that taking nerve block isn't bad, and it will help block the pain sensation. Post this I will advise you to do total hip rehabilitation programming post surgery. This will help the muscles to be stronger and provide maximum stability of the newly installed joint. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Jay In Chat Doctor.
