For periostitis of the tibia caused by prolonged intense physical activity, treatment can include oral nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, physical therapy, and controlling exercise intensity. Additionally, rest and a diet rich in calcium, vitamins, and collagen can aid in recovery.

Osteomyelitis can lead to joint swelling, pain, functional impairment, and muscle atrophy. Common causes include damage to the tibia’s periosteum or bacterial infection.
