Now also need to pay attention to the recovery exercise after discharge:
1, if you are an elderly patient, you need to pay attention to the strengthening of nutrition, such as protein and calcium intake (diet, not drugs).
2, activities are still not suitable for violent occasions, you can walk slowly with crutches. Pay attention to the activities of hip joint and knee joint of the affected limb to avoid the influence of long-term exposure on joint mobility.
