Is it true that the femur head heals itself in the dirt?

There is no evidence to show that the local methods can make the femoral head heal by itself. Due to its anatomical location and poor blood supply, most of the lesions of the femoral head can not be healed by itself, and the use of traditional folk remedies and partial remedies has no scientific theoretical basis, and it may aggravate the condition of the patient and cause irreversible damages. The femoral head disease can be divided into many types, whether it is femoral head fracture or femoral head necrosis, after diagnosis, according to the stage of local lesion, type and overall condition, choose specific treatment plan. The most common clinical treatment options for osteonecrosis of the femoral head include non-surgical treatment and surgical treatment. Early stage necrosis of the femoral head can often be alleviated or even cured by non-surgical treatments such as medication, physical therapy, braking and traction, and traditional Chinese medicine. However, as the condition of femoral head necrosis progresses rapidly, the effect of non-surgical treatment is not good, and most of the patients need surgical treatment, which mainly includes the repair and reconstruction surgery that preserves the head of the femur and the artificial hip replacement surgery. It is recommended that after diagnosis and under the guidance of the doctor regular regular treatment, do not blindly use their own folk remedies and other drugs.
