Question
My mother is 48 years old and has been suffering from osteomyelitis for two years, with main symptoms including pain, chills, and blurred vision. Although various medications have been used, the effects have been unsatisfactory. I am inquiring about effective treatment methods for osteomyelitis.
Answer
If osteomyelitis has persisted for two years, complete healing may be more difficult. Early osteomyelitis can be cured with antibiotic medications. Currently, it is recommended to take oral nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs during pain, and regional injections along with antibiotics can be administered if necessary. If symptoms are severe, bed rest is required until the condition is controlled, after which activity can be gradually resumed.
