Thank you for your query. It is uncommon to have pinched nerves in the region of the hip. A more common problem would be osteoarthritis in the hip or a pinched nerve in the lower back or lumbar spine. The most common condition resulting in a pinched nerve in the region of the hip would be piriformis syndrome and this can be treated conservatively. I would suggest seeing an orthoapedic surgeon to get an accurate diagnosis and treatment plan.

Hello! Thank you for your query. Your friend had sustained a fracture after a motorcycle accident. Most of these types of injuries are high in impact and often result in a more severe type of injury. It would be unwise to have the fracture treated by traditional massage. You should seek an orthopaedic consult and have the doctor advise you on the treatment options to ensure a good recovery.

Hello and thank you for contacting us. From your description, the pain in the legs can be due to a problem in the lumbar spine. This can be due to prolapsed intervertebral discs in the lower lumbar region resulting in nerve root or canal compression. I would recommend seeing an orthopaedic doctor and have him assess you thoroughly. An MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) scan of your spine may be useful.

Hello and good morning. The pain in your Father in Law's knees is likely to be due to osteoarthritis. This is a degenerative condition in the knee, like a "wear and tear". It could be related to the type of activities that he does or to previous injuries during sports. It would be important to get it properly assessed and have treatment started. Osteoporosis is also an age related condition where the bone weakens. A special test called a BMD will be able to determine if the problem in the knees is related to osteoporosis. A review with an orthopaedic surgeon will be useful.
