Symptoms and Side Effects

Patients who have received a DePuy ASR Hip System should be aware of the most common symptoms to watch for: constant pain, swelling and problems walking. These symptoms can be expected immediately after surgery but should eventually go away. If your symptoms continue or worsen patients are advised to call their doctor. Other symptoms that have been reported are constant thigh or groin pain, and pain bearing weight or from standing and sitting. Researchers found that the majority of symptoms patients are experiencing from the DePuy ASR are due from the metal-on-metal design.

Symptoms may differ for all patients, but the best thing you can do if you have received a DePuy ASR Hip System is talk to your doctor and contact an attorney to discuss any legal compensation.
