A shattered hip can be a very debilitating injury. A hip fracture if not properly attended to and treated can affect a person’s ability to function independently.
As you become older, your risks of a hip fracture increase. Every year, nearly 300,000 people over the age of 65 are admitted to hospitals with hip fractures. Falling causes more than 95 percent of hip fractures, with sideways falls being the most common.
Listen to Dr. Vartak, Orthopaedic Surgeon, as he discusses hip fractures in the elderly.
