Patient's question:
I have always been in good health, but recently I've been experiencing joint pain without any external injury. At first, I didn't pay much attention to it, but after a few days, the pain persisted. I took some medication, but it didn't help. A colleague mentioned it might be bursitis, and I want to know the symptoms of bursitis to prepare for a hospital check-up and treatment in a few days.What kind of help I need: What are the symptoms of bursitis?
Doctor's answer:
Periosteitis is caused by the expansion, congestion, edema, or subperiosteal hemorrhage of the periosteum and its blood vessels, leading to creeping periosteal damage due to the organization of hematoma, periosteal hyperplasia, and inflammatory changes. It can also be caused by infectious periosteal damage due to the rampant of purulent bacteria. The main symptoms include local pain, local congestion and edema, and movement disorders. Early and careful examination and diagnosis followed by symptomatic treatment are recommended. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
