Treatment For Exertional Compartment Syndrome
Exertional Compartment Syndrome, leg. I am helping my daughter in law search for a specialist that she could see. She had hip replacement surgery and then during therapy she got this syndrome. Now she probably needs surgery. Would like to find doctor within 100 miles!

Hello
You may have good relief with physiotherapy like IFT [Interferential therapy] and TENS[Transcutaneous electrostimulation] along with ultrasound.
So if possible you can start that.
You can wait for a month more and then you may consult your doctor.
Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.
Wishing you good health.
Take care.
