In a new vlog, Angelica Panganiban shares why she needed the hip surgery.
ANGELICA PANGANIBAN – The Kapamilya actress details what was done to her for her bone disease and reveals why she needed the surgery.
Last year, months after giving birth, actress Angelica Panganiban was diagnosed with a bone disease. She suffered from severe pain that started when she was still pregnant and this diagnosis answered why she had those symptoms which mainly included severe pain in her hip part.
Angelica has a bone disease and this condition affected her daily life which was hard for her as she has Bean and she is very hands-on with her daughter. They sought treatment for this and experts suggested she needed a hip replacement surgery, however, they chose the more conservative approach in dealing with her condition.
She did platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections but in her new vlog where Angelica shared her hip surgery journey, the PRP in the long run became less effective. The pain in her hips worsened and her body started to reject her medications.
In her recent vlog, she shared the reason behind her surgery and according to her, the pain became too much to handle causing her limping while walking. After some tests, it was found out that there was a slight collapse on the left part, hence, the pain that became more unbearable.
She shared that doctors have rejected to get her a hip replacement surgery as she is still too young for this. The solution is to delay the collapse of her bones and several treatments were done on her.
The actress underwent cord decompression surgery where the doctors drilled multiple holes on both of her hips to allow blood flow and release tension which will make her move freely.
They also did the bone marrow aspiration procedure on her for her dead bones and bone morphogenetic protein, a bone stimulant. PRP is still done and all of these are done to slow down the collapse of hips.
She is hoping for a miracle that she won’t need the hip replacement anymore with care, proper therapy, and fervent prayers based on her video.
