This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I had an injury before three years on my hip and I am now about to undergo a surgery due to issues with my discs that started when I injured my hip flexor. I just had an MRI today and would like a radiologist to view my images and send me a report on the findings.

2. No depression of head of femur or crescent sign seen in the present MRI

3. No displaced fracture is seen.

It requires attention and control over the progress of necrosis within the involved bones. It means that the blood supply to the bone is compromised and is causing progressive degeneration.
