Avascular Necrosis (AVN)

Don’t Let Bone Death Stop Your Life — Reclaim Mobility, Prevent Joint Collapse

Avascular Necrosis (AVN), also known as Osteonecrosis, is a serious condition where bone tissue dies due to a lack of blood supply. It most commonly affects the hip joint (femoral head) but can also occur in the shoulder, knee, ankle, or jaw. If not treated in time, AVN can lead to joint destruction, collapse, and long-term disability.

At Physio Ace Physiotherapy & Sports Rehab Clinic, we offer evidence-based, personalized rehabilitation programs for patients with AVN — aiming to preserve joint function, reduce pain, delay or avoid surgery, and help you maintain an active lifestyle.

What is Avascular Necrosis?

Your bones are living tissues that need a continuous supply of oxygenated blood to stay healthy. In AVN, that blood flow gets interrupted due to various reasons, causing the bone tissue to die. Over time, the dead bone becomes weak, leading to microfractures, joint instability, and eventual collapse of the joint surface.

Causes & Risk Factors
  • Trauma / Fracture – especially femoral neck fractures
  • Prolonged steroid use – major contributor in non-traumatic cases
  • Excessive alcohol consumption
  • Autoimmune conditions – like lupus
