Hip Fractures
Hip fractures occur when the femur or the top quarter of the thighbone suffers a break. Fractures in the hip are most commonly the result of a serious fall, but other factors, including sedentarism, being underweight, calcium or vitamin D deficiency, or a family history of osteoporosis can increase the likelihood of this injury.
In most cases, hip fractures cause intense pain in the hip/groin area, walking difficulty or inability, and swollen, red, and bruised skin around the injured area.
No appointment needed. Just walk-in.
Sprains, strains, and breaks hurt. If your first stop is a big hospital, these injuries can hurt your wallet even more. Instead, come direct to Direct Orthopedic Care. No appointment is needed—just walk into one of our five locations in the Treasure Valley and see an orthopedic specialist right away.
