Question
How to Treat Orbital Osteomylitis?
Answer
Orbital osteomylitis primarily occurs due to chronic inflammation around the orbital area following injury, leading to inflammation of the periosteum. This can result in recurrent congestion and swelling, and may even cause severe proptosis or interfere with vision. Treatment typically involves taking nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs to relieve pain, along with the use of Erythromycin eye drops. Acupuncture therapy can also be combined for treatment.
