Question
Hello, I have osteomylitis and still feel pain after seeing a doctor. What treatment methods are available?
Answer
Osteomylitis is a traumatic injury to the periosteum, caused by the expansion, congestion, edema, or subperiosteal hemorrhage of periosteal blood vessels, or by purulent bacterial infection leading to infectious periosteum damage. It is recommended to adopt topical medication treatment, which can include internal herbal ointments that relax tendons and activate blood circulation, reduce swelling and relieve pain, promote blood circulation to dissipate stasis, and expel wind and cold. The internal herbal ointment treatment allows the drug molecules to be absorbed through the skin into the bloodstream, directly reaching the affected area. This promotes the body’s regulatory functions through skin conduction to meridians and tendons, accelerating recovery to achieve rapid healing.
