Doctor's answer:
Periostitis is caused by the expansion, congestion, edema, or subperiosteal laceration of the periosteum and its blood vessels, leading to creeping periosteal damage due to the organization of hematoma, periosteal hyperplasia, and inflammatory changes, or by infectious periosteal damage caused by the rampant of purulent bacteria.
