Patient's question:
Does bursitis pain require surgery?Doctor's answer:
For the pain of periostitis, I believe that surgical treatment is generally not necessary. For the treatment of this condition, it is usually possible to decide on strict treatment. For this situation, it is generally important to rest and avoid exposure to cold, as well as to reduce the impact on the affected area. Oral non-steroidal anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs, as well as blood-activating and blood-stasis-removing medications, can be taken, and these should be used in conjunction with physical therapy. Additionally, topical blood-activating and blood-stasis-removing ointments can be applied, and it is recommended to apply cold compresses daily.
