Patient's question:
How is periostitis treated, what should be paid attention to in daily life, and what are the requirements for stability?Doctor's answer:
Dear Inquirer,Periostitis is caused by stress-induced damage to the periosteum due to the expansion, congestion, edema, or subperiosteal hemorrhage of the periosteum and its blood vessels, followed by the organization of blood clots, periosteal hyperplasia, and inflammatory changes. It can also be caused by infectious periostitis resulting from the invasion of pyogenic bacteria.
Treatment for periostitis:
1. Etiological treatment, anti-infection therapy, and aseptic inflammation.
2. Maintain rest at all times and avoid strenuous exercise.
3. Symptomatic treatment, including the complete elimination of local swelling, edema, and blood circulation promotion.
