Asking for Father, Male, 70 years old, Karachi

My dad is having a pain on right hip and leg. According to doctors there is a fracture in hip. Apparently surgery is the only option?

Any suggestion would be appreciated!

Due to advance age the density of bone decreases. It is called Osteoporosis. This is the underlying cause of your father's fracture. As advised by some collegues, this fracture needs operative fixation precisely joint replacement. Best of luck ahead.

At this age, surgery is the only answer
What type of surgery, depends upon xrays
