Question

What are the causes of elbow osteomylitis?

Answer

Elbow bursitis can be divided into bacterial inflammation and aseptic inflammation. Aseptic inflammation is quite common and usually arises from bursitis caused by chronic injury or regional injury. However, bacterial inflammation typically originates from bacterial infections in other parts of the body, which then spread through the bloodstream or lymphatic system, leading to similar inflammatory changes in the synovium within the joint. Osteomylitis is a chronic membranous damage or infectious membranous damage caused by the expansion, congestion, edema, or subperiosteal hemorrhage of the periosteum and its blood vessels. This includes the formation of blood clots, periosteal hyperplasia, and inflammatory changes. Improving regional blood circulation, stabilizing surrounding tissue nutrition, forcing blocked microcirculation to be unobstructed, and completely eliminating obstacles to the reabsorption of joint fluid.
