Will i get any medicine for pain when i go for the hip osteotomy?

Oh yes: An osteotomy of the hip will likely be painful and your surgeon will likely give a fairly strong prescription pain medication. Certainly, different people feel pains differently. A positive outlook can significantly improve patients' perception of their pain.

You should.: most surgeons use narcotic, oral pain medications after those types of procedures.
