What is Osteomyelitis: Symptoms and Causes about?

Osteomyelitis is an acute or chronic bone infection that is usually caused by bacteria and less commonly by fungi. It can spread from infected skin, muscles or tendons next to the bone or from another infected part of the body through the bloodstream. Risk factors include diabetes, recent trauma, and poor blood circulation. Symptoms include bone pain, fever, and swelling near the infected bone. Treatment involves long-term antibiotics, surgery to remove infected bone tissue, and improving blood circulation.
