Question

I experienced severe pain in my lower calf after running, diagnosed as osteitis. I’m asking about treatment methods and the medication prescribed by the hospital.

Answer

Osteitis can lead to regional redness, swelling, and pain, so it’s recommended to undergo blood tests and X-ray examinations for confirmation. Treatment usually involves anti-inflammatory symptomatic therapy, and activities such as running should be avoided to facilitate recovery. During the pain period, keep the affected joint immobilized to alleviate symptoms. If similar symptoms are detected, seek professional medical assistance promptly.
