Case 1

Further History
________________________________________________________________________________

Mrs Green telephones and requests a home nursing visit. She tells you her right hip has been painful for one week.

There has been no history of trauma to Mrs Green’s hip. When the pain has been particularly bad, she has taken paracetamol tablets once or twice a day and they helped relieve the pain.

Her dctor arranges an X-ray of her right hip. The X-ray findings were normal.
