Case Summary | Hip pain
| Condition | Hip Calcium Buildup |
| Case Description | After I was diagnosed with Legionaire's disease I was put on steroids, which created calcium deposits in both hips. After a few years of both sharp and dull pain, it was correctly diagnosed and recommended I have first one, then the other, hip replaced. Although it's been a lot of therapy to heal, I'm getting stronger daily. |
