Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The affected leg is externally rotated and may be shortened. The extremity shortening occurs because the muscles acting on the hip joint depend on the continuity of the femur to act, and when this continuity is disrupted, the result is a shorter-appearing leg.
Detailed explanation-2: -Inability to get up from a fall or to walk. Severe pain in the hip or groin. Inability to put weight on the leg on the side of the injured hip. Bruising and swelling in and around the hip area. Shorter leg on the side of the injured hip. More items •05-May-2022
