I'm 76, 11 years ago I had a total left hip replacement , and now the right hip is going; I dread going through another hip operation . I've heard that Hyaluronic Acid helps in the regeneration of cartilage? What do you think, is it helpful, is it...

I am about to have a hip operation and go under general anesthetic. I am currently suffering from palpitations. I am 176 cm tall weigh 82kg. I am 53. I keep myself fit and have a good medical history only visiting hospital before for a knee op. I am a light alcohol drinker and i dont smoke. I have seen a cardiologist and they have not managed to catch the palpitations on heart monitors. They seem to think i am ok. I am worried.

I suffer from osteoarthritis in spine I have two knee replacement s and had hip replacement last January my right hip operation was a success but have suffered extremely bad pain in lower back groin and front. Muscle all in right side but presently and now my left foot swells as the day wares on it gets worse but have no pain in foot I. Am taking various pill s for back and hip pain but am concerned with left foot swelling what can I do to help it

Hi doctor, i have osteo arthritis in my right hip, and have lost 20kg, i still need to lose about 6kg which has helped me to get mobilised alot more. i cannot afford the hip operation which is not worrying me, as the strange way my body has turned that i cannot walk up straight like normal, what can i do to improve on this. Kind regards, Joey

I have had several r hip operations due to several infections in the new hip. It is now repaired. But I've been having extreme pain in all of my joints. Is there anything that will help with these stiff and painful joints. Exercise my joints get so bad that I can bearly move and no pain meds work prescription or over the counter. thanks Jeanne
