Perthes Disease क्या है? | Perthes Disease in Child Limping & Hip Pain | Dr. Somesh Virmani

When a child starts limping, it is often dismissed as a minor fall or strain. But in some cases, it can be a sign of perthres disease, a condition that quietly affects the growing hip joint and can impact a child’s movement for life if ignored. This video helps parents understand perthres disease, its early warning signs, and why timely diagnosis is critical. Many children with perthres disease initially complain of mild hip or knee pain, avoid play, or develop a subtle limp. As perthres disease progresses, everyday activities can become difficult without proper treatment. Early recognition of perthres disease allows appropriate monitoring and treatment planning. With the right care, most children with perthres disease can return to normal activities and protect long-term hip function. Parents should be alert if limping lasts for weeks, pain keeps recurring, or movement seems restricted, as these can be signs of perthres disease. Understanding perthres disease empowers families to seek timely medical advice and avoid long-term joint damage. Awareness of perthres disease is especially important during growing years, when early intervention makes a significant difference in outcomes related to perthres disease. 00:14 – What is Perthes Disease and why it affects the hip joint 00:41 – How loss of blood supply damages the hip bone 01:24 – Healing timeline: how long recovery usually takes 01:50 – Treatment goal: keeping the hip ball inside the socket 02:52 – Treatment options based on the child’s age 03:42 – When surgery is needed and expected outcomes About Dr. Somesh Virmani Dr. Somesh Virmani is a trusted expert in pediatric orthopedics with 15 years of experience and a proven record of successful surgeries.
