[|Human|] Hi! I have been diagonised with AVN of the hip joint stage 2. I have been advised by my doctor to have calcium and physiotherapy. Its been 10 days since I have been on physio and the pain has reduced quite a bit. I want to know what is the actual solution to this problem apart from hip replacement as the docs are advising. Will the AVn spread to other joints, will it go to stage 3. Will my joint/ bone break if I fall as I feel very weak in my legs and feel that I have no strength in my hip joint. Will physiotherapy help me in the long run. What chance do I have.
[|AI|]  Hi, AVN stage 2 is middle of stages and is likely to progress further. It does not spread to other joints as such. Hip replacement is the only answer but wait for it, until you are not able to do your activities of daily living. Physiotherapy will strengthen your muscle and keep them in good shape for future. There are no statistics to suggest how and when will AVN progress further. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
