Question
What is osteomylitis? How should it be treated, and what should I be careful about in daily life? Do I need anything stable?
Answer
Osteomylitis is a stress injury to the periosteum or an infectious periosteal injury caused by the expansion, congestion, edema, or subperiosteal hemorrhage of the periosteum and its blood vessels, as well as the organization of blood clots, periosteal hyperplasia, and inflammatory changes. Treatment includes: 1. Etiological treatment, anti-infection therapy for aseptic inflammation. 2. Always maintain rest and avoid severe movement. 3. Symptomatic treatment. This includes thoroughly eliminating regional swelling, edema, and promoting blood circulation. 4. Physical therapy. 5. Medication treatment.
