Patient's question:
I found out at the hospital after a thorough examination that I have periostitis, and added some symptoms. I have been receiving treatment at the hospital for the past year, but I'm still not doing well. It feels particularly difficult to treat. How long does the treatment for periostitis usually take?Doctor's answer:
Periarthritis is a common bone and joint disease in clinical diagnosis. Periarthritis primarily manifests as atrophy or pain in the bone and joint. In clinical diagnosis, some patients may experience an exacerbation of pain after exposure to cold or overexertion. The medical treatment duration for periarthritis is generally about 1 to 3 months. During treatment, the focus is primarily on protecting the joint. In clinical diagnosis and treatment, some medications that can alleviate joint atrophy can be used in conjunction, such as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs or some traditional Chinese medicines that promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis.
