Finally fracture was healed with hip joint fixed in external rotation deformity and limb length discrepancy of approx 2" now from 1 weak she is have tenderness and pain with movement in hip area of affected side. Pain is very severe with movement. Presently we are giving hot fomentation but she is not getting enough relief please guide.
