Bone inflammation. Why does osteitis occur and how to cope with this disease

Among all diseases of the musculoskeletal system, various infections of the joints and bones are very common. They are able to provoke complications, spreading to neighboring tissues, and therefore the initial symptoms cannot be ignored. Timely treatment is an important condition for maintaining human health and adequate physical activity.

To begin with, let's take a closer look: what is a joint infection. The essence of such diseases is that pathogenic microorganisms penetrate into the articulation cavity or the surrounding soft tissues. They can damage bone tissue, which is a very serious problem.

The symptoms of a bone and joint infection are as follows:

• discomfort in the affected area;
• increasing pain sensations;
• local temperature increase, with the spread of infection - general hyperthermia;
• redness of the skin over the joint;
• swelling, fluid accumulation;
• development of necrotic processes;
• manifestations of intoxication of the body (nausea, general malaise);
• enlarged lymph nodes;
• difficulty in motor function;
• curvature of the joint.

With pyogenic inflammation, skin blanching, a local decrease in temperature can be observed, pus is visible through the skin, and when it breaks out, it comes out.

Causes and provoking factors

The main cause of infectious diseases of the musculoskeletal system is pathogenic microorganisms, in particular, viruses and fungi. The most common provocateur is streptococcus.

What infections affect the joints:

• streptococci;
• staphylococci;
• salmonella;
• colibacillus;
• brucella;
• fungal origin;
• herpes;
• pale treponema (syphilis);
• smallpox, rubella, hepatitis viruses, etc.

They can penetrate into the joint cavity both directly and indirectly, that is, with the bloodstream in the presence of an infection in the body.

The provoking factors of infection with such diseases are:

• injuries, especially open fractures;
• stab and gunshot wounds;
• hypothermia of the body;
• weakened immunity;
• surgical interventions;
• installation of ligatures;
• infectious diseases of other body systems;
• inflammatory processes in the surrounding soft tissues.

Types of diseases

Based on which infections affect the joints, it is possible to identify the main diseases that occur most often.

Let's consider them in more detail in the table:

Diagnostics

When the first symptoms of problems with the musculoskeletal system appear, you should immediately go to the hospital. Only a doctor will be able to establish an accurate diagnosis and prescribe the necessary treatment, which will prevent the development of complications.

To determine which infections affecting the joints are disease provocateurs in a particular case, it is necessary to conduct a number of laboratory tests.

This includes:

• general blood test;
• blood chemistry;
• puncture of the contents of the joint with further bacteriological examination.

Additionally, tests are carried out for the susceptibility of the identified microorganisms to certain types of antibiotics.

In order to determine the type of disease, as well as the extent of the spread of the inflammatory process, the patient is assigned additional instrumental studies:

• radiography;
• scintigraphy;
• arthroscopy.

Areas of inflammation, especially if purulent accumulations, will look darkened on diagnostic images. The most accurate method is tomography, as it allows a more detailed examination of the condition of the bone and the surrounding soft tissues.

Treatment methods

Infectious lesions of the knee joints and other particularly mobile areas of the musculoskeletal system require temporary immobilization. This will reduce pain and swelling and will also prevent the problem from getting worse.

Instructions for further treatment depend on what kind of diagnosis was made during the examination.

For full therapy, the following directions can be used:

1. Taking medications... To relieve inflammation, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory and corticosteroid drugs are required. They relieve symptoms and pain. To fight directly against the infection itself, a suitable antibiotic, antiviral or antifungal drug is selected. In the presence of wounds, regular antiseptic treatment is required. Medicines are used in the form of tablets, injections, intravenous infusions, as well as in the form of ointments and creams for local action on the focus of the problem.
2. Physiotherapy. After elimination of the infection and removal of inflammation, you can begin to carry out auxiliary therapeutic procedures using special equipment and drugs. The most commonly used are electrophoresis, magnetic therapy, UHF, etc.
3. Surgical intervention... Infectious diseases are quite often accompanied by suppuration and tissue necrosis, which requires debridement and arthroplasty. In the rehabilitation period, it is important to prevent reintroduction of pathogenic microorganisms into the wound.
4. Folk remedies... After removing the acute manifestations of inflammation by traditional methods, you can turn to folk recipes. Their price is minimal, but they can be used to stimulate tissue regeneration. To strengthen the immune system, it is recommended to drink herbal decoctions: raspberry leaf, St. John's wort, chamomile. Grated raw potatoes, cabbage leaf, sea buckthorn oil are applied to the sore joint.
5. Exercise therapy... Physical rehabilitation is required to restore normal motor ability after the main course of treatment. For this, it is recommended to perform special exercises specially selected for the patient, depending on his state of health. They strengthen atrophied muscles and ligaments, increase flexibility, stimulate blood circulation and increase the range of motion in the joint. All this is necessary for complete tissue regeneration.

Preventive actions

In order to reduce the likelihood of developing such diseases, it is necessary to pay special attention to their prevention, especially if there is an increased risk of penetration of pathogenic microorganisms.

• protection against hypothermia;
• preventing traumatic injury;
• compliance with hygiene standards in the presence of wounds on the body, carrying out regular antiseptic treatment;
• passing a preventive antibacterial course according to the testimony of a doctor;
• observance of precautionary measures in the rehabilitation period after surgical interventions, in particular the procedure of osteosynthesis;
• general strengthening of immunity;
• timely treatment of colds and other diseases of an infectious and viral nature;
• if an infection was previously detected in the joints, do not delay treatment until the pathological process has spread to the bone tissue.

To learn more about joint and bone infections, watch the video in this article.

The word "osteitis" (not to be confused with otitis media) in a broad sense means inflammation of the bone, or, more literally, inflammation of the bone tissue.

In fact, this is a group of dissimilar diseases, pathological conditions and processes, in relation to which much remains to be investigated, clarified and clarified. In the current Tenth Edition of the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10), such inflammatory processes are classified under the heading "Other bone diseases", and the unifying characteristic is precisely the presence of inflammation.

2. Reasons

The main trigger (triggering factor) in the etiopathogenesis of osteitis is secondary infection in fractures and other injuries, which include surgical interventions on bone structures. The infection can be both nonspecific (streptococci, staphylococci and other widespread pathogenic microorganisms), and specific (mycobacterium tuberculosis, gonococcus, treponema pale).

Osteitis also includes Paget's osteitis deformans - a chronic, progressive disease of unknown etiology, in which bone tissue regeneration (normally, its renewal occurs constantly) is carried out due to the formation of tissues with an irregular, altered structure. Paget's disease usually affects the pelvic, femur, humerus, as well as the spinal column and bones of the skull.

Unfortunately, in isolated cases, the reason for the development of osteitis is non-compliance with the BCG vaccination technique.

3. Symptoms and diagnosis

The clinical picture of osteitis in each case is determined by a number of individual factors, i.e. generally varies widely. Quite typical is the asymptomatic or low-symptom course at the initial stages. Over time, patients notice some swelling, painful discomfort and one or another degree of functional decline in the affected area (for example, limb mobility is limited, the chewing process becomes painful, etc.).

Under unfavorable conditions (hypothermia, abdominal surgery, exhaustion, hypovitaminosis and other factors weakening the immune system), an exacerbation may occur during osteitis, including with such severe complications as the formation of fistulas, phlegmon, osteomyelitis.

Chronic osteitis (especially fibrous osteitis) has an increased risk of fractures due to a tendency for the affected bone tissue to soften and become fragile.

Diagnostics is based on X-ray method; in cases of insufficient information content, a radionuclide study, computer or magnetic resonance imaging is prescribed. According to the indications, immunological and bacteriological laboratory tests are performed, in some cases a biopsy is required for differential diagnosis.

4. Treatment

The therapeutic scheme is determined by the results of the diagnostic examination. Depending on the scale, localization and etiology of inflammation, antibacterial drugs, anti-inflammatory drugs, immunomodulators and immunostimulants are prescribed. Often, absolute indications for surgical intervention are revealed - in particular, for the removal of necrotic (dead) areas. Therapy with special proteolytic enzymes, as well as physiotherapeutic methods, are effective. It is mandatory to sanitize all foci of chronic infection, to stop exacerbations of concomitant and / or primary diseases in relation to osteitis (for example, rheumatoid arthritis, syphilis, tuberculosis).

An important task is to prevent the chronicity of the inflammatory process. In this regard, the time factor is of decisive importance: at the first symptoms of trouble in any bone tissues and structures, an appeal to a doctor should be immediate. The earlier a reliable diagnosis is made and treatment is started, the more favorable the prognosis, i.e. higher chances of complete healing of osteitis.

The inflammatory process can develop in any tissue or organ. The human skeleton is no exception. Inflammation of bone tissue does not appear so often, but this is an extremely serious group of diseases that are difficult to treat due to the specificity of bones, their structure and location. For the same reason, the disease often proceeds with various complications: osteomyelitis, mastoiditis, and so on.

Inflammation is always caused by an infection, usually a bacterial infection. And bacteria enter the bone in two ways, hence the classification of osteitis: non-specific and specific.

Nonspecific inflammation develops as a result of bone infection during fracture, surgery, contusion, or other tissue damage. That is, bacteria enter the body from the outside.

Specific osteitis develops due to an infection in the body: tuberculous, syphilitic, gonorrheal, and so on. There are known cases of development of inflammation against the background of brucellosis, gonorrhea, paratyphoid fever, rheumatism.

Depending on the course of the disease, acute and chronic bone inflammation are distinguished.

Osteitis manifestations

Symptoms of the disease can be more or less pronounced, it depends on the localization of the focus, its extent, as well as on the general state of human health. Often the process develops almost imperceptibly until the moment of exacerbation.

The main symptoms of osteitis are the following:

• pain at the site of the lesion;
• slight swelling;
• changes in the functioning of the damaged area;
• the appearance of a secondary deformation or fracture is possible;
• with inflammation of the spinal column, there are symptoms of damage to the nerve fibers, the spinal cord.

X-ray examination reveals destructive foci of compact or cancellous bone substance, osteosclerosis or a shadow of sequestration can be detected as a reaction of the surrounding tissue to inflammation.

As for chronic osteitis, it is often sluggish, and its symptoms appear only during an exacerbation due to colds, stress, and so on. In addition, this disease proceeds against the background of others, therefore, it is often detected only with an X-ray examination. So, chronic inflammation of the jaw bone, which has developed as a result of periodontitis, is often found - the symptoms are mixed, and without examination it is difficult to identify the true cause of the pain that bothers the patient. X-ray shows a thickening of the jaw bone - this is the main symptom of chronic osteitis.

If the focus expands and affects the surrounding tissue, fistulas and phlegmon appear.

Various types of specific osteitis can be diagnosed at the location of the foci. So, with tuberculosis, the vertebral bodies are most often affected, the femoral, humerus, tibia, sciatic, pubic, ilium closer to the joints.

Diagnostics

As always, a lot of information can be obtained when examining a patient and collecting his anamnesis. The main method for diagnosing osteitis is radiography - it is available and quite informative. In some situations, MRI, ultrasound can be prescribed. In addition, laboratory tests are carried out: a detailed blood test, bacterial cultures, diagnostic punctures, and so on.

The most common types of osteitis

Many patients are diagnosed with diseases such as osteomyelitis, periostitis, mastoiditis, inflammation of the hip joint, ethmoid bone, epiphysitis.

Osteomyelitis

This is the name of the inflammation that has engulfed the bone. When the lesion spreads to the bone marrow, it increases in size with the expansion of the hard shell. There is a clamping of blood vessels, blocking of blood flow, which leads to a gradual death of tissues.

Osteomyelitis most often develops due to internal infection, and in just a few days. At first, its symptoms are not very pronounced: discomfort in the joint, muscle pain, general malaise may occur. Only then the body temperature rises, severe pain appears, aggravated by movement, the general condition deteriorates sharply.

The most commonly diagnosed osteomyelitis caused by Staphylococcus aureus, however, the cause of the disease can be E. coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, hemolytic streptococcus, rickettsia, some types of fungi.

If there is no treatment for the acute stage, it turns into generalized, and then into the chronic one, too, quickly, in just a week. This form manifests itself as mild malaise, low-grade fever. But at the same time, fistulas and sequesters are formed with the release of pus, particles of dead tissue.

Osteomyelitis is an inflammation that is often perceived as not serious, although it leads to severe complications up to joint deformity and limb loss. Therefore, when the above symptoms appear, it is necessary to consult an orthopedist and undergo comprehensive treatment.

Mastoiditis

This is the name of a purulent inflammation that has developed in the cellular tissue of the mastoid process of the temporal bone, which also affects the mucous membrane of the antrum. As a rule, the disease occurs against the background of otitis media when the infection spreads to the bone.

The more pus accumulates, the more pronounced the symptoms, and a relatively good outcome is the formation of a fistula through which pus comes out. The people call periostitis a flux.

Rhinoetmoiditis

This is the name of ethmoid bone inflammation. The disease is manifested by a feeling of distention in the nose, eye sockets, and forehead. Puffiness, redness, increased sensitivity of the skin of the eyelids and the base of the nose develops. In the same area, neurological pains appear, which intensify at night.

Inflammation of the ethmoid bone is also manifested by photophobia, increased eye fatigue. Nasal breathing suffers, the patient complains of copious mucopurulent discharge, blowing out does not bring relief. There may be a foreign body sensation in the nose. In addition, inflammation of the ethmoid bone causes a violation of the sense of smell, up to its complete disappearance.

With an inflammation of the ethmoid bone, several outcomes are likely: spontaneous recovery, elimination of the disease, or its transition to a chronic form.

Epiphysitis

This is an inflammation of the heel bone. Most often it occurs in boys under 14 years of age. The reason for this is a microtrauma of the connective tissue that makes up the body of the heel bone. Cartilage is completely replaced by hard tissue only after 7 years, and before that time there is a risk of damage and, as a result, the development of inflammation.

Epiphysitis can also appear due to improper formation of the arch of the foot, which causes the heel to receive a large load. In addition, inflammatory processes in the heel bone often develop in people in the northern regions, where there is always a lack of vitamin D.

This disease of the calcaneus manifests itself in a standard way: pain at the site of the lesion, restriction of movement. If there is a rupture of the cartilage, there is edema and flushing of the skin.

Osteitis treatment

Regardless of where exactly the inflammation of the bone tissue appeared: in the tibia, radial, temporal or any other, the therapy should be comprehensive. It always includes antibiotics and sulfonamides, antiseptics, proteolytic enzymes. In severe cases, surgical treatment is indicated, in which bone sanitation is performed.

If the patient does not receive adequate therapy, various complications arise, for example, if the tibia is damaged, inflammation of the hip joint may appear, which leads to disability. With the development of a pathological process in the calcaneus, lameness is likely, which cannot be eliminated.

There are many examples, and they are all sad, therefore, if after a fracture or bruise, against the background of chronic diseases, an arm, leg, spine began to hurt, it may be bone inflammation, and you should consult an orthopedist. The sooner this is done, the better.

Inflammation of bone tissue (in medical language, this disease is called osteomyelitis) is a purulent infectious disease.

If this ailment affects bone tissue, it is called osteitis; if bone tissue and periosteum are already affected, this is periostitis.

Sometimes the disease "touches" the bone marrow - this is the onset of myelitis. When this disease first starts, it is called acute osteomyelitis.

Chronic osteomyelitis is characterized by a long time of illness, then an improvement, then a worsening of the condition, periods of special exacerbation.

This disease, if left untreated, develops into more serious problems, which are then more difficult to treat.

Types of osteitis

The main types of the disease:

• syphilitic;
• fibrous;
• periostitis;
• condensing osteomyelitis;
• tuberculous osteitis.

Osteitis syphilitic

This type of illness occurs due to an infection - syphilis.

It is characterized by the formation of a painful compaction in the bone tissue, which is filled with purulent fluid and already decomposed bone tissue.

Most often, palpation is painful and the node is visible through the skin. After it reaches a large size, the knot breaks and the contents flow out.

Fibrous

This is one of the forms of complicated osteitis.

Periostitis

Most often it occurs with inflammation of the jaw bone tissue.

In the presence of this type of disease, acute pain is felt at the site of the disease, discomfort with pressure, swelling of the lips, cheeks or face.

Condensing osteomyelitis

This type can occur only with a chronic form of the disease. It is characterized by a disease of several sections of bone tissue at once.

If this type of disease is not treated, osteoporosis will develop - the destruction of bone.

Tuberculous osteitis

Characterized by the formation of the disease against the background of tuberculosis.

Forms of the disease

According to the form of the course of the disease, they are divided into:

1. acute form;
2. chronic form.

Acute form

The very beginning of the disease, before treatment and most often until the moment the disease is detected;

Chronic form

The diagnosis of chronic osteomyelitis is characterized by the duration of the disease, the presence of remissions and periods of exacerbation.

When the jaw is involved, it will be referred to as "chronic granulating osteitis."

Causes of the disease

The most common cause of osteitis is any traumatic effect on bone tissue. These can be blows, bruises of various strengths (it does not matter whether the fracture is closed or open).

The cause may be improper surgical intervention in the bone tissue. Any open fracture carries a hidden risk of infection.

When the tissues that protect the bone are damaged, infection can easily enter the wound. It will cause further bone infection, and create a favorable microflora for bacteria to multiply.

The formation of such pathogenic microflora can be caused not only by bacteria that got into the wound during an open fracture.

The reason can be given by diseases that a person suffers from - these are syphilis and tuberculosis. They cause syphilitic and tuberculous osteitis.

The reason that the disease enters the bone tissue can be explained by the fact that the infection is not only in a particular organ, but in the whole system.

The blood that circulates through the body carries the infection from one organ system to another. Human bone tissue can also be affected in this way.

In modern medical practice, osteitis was formed along with diseases such as gonorrhea, paratyphoid fever, and arthritis.

Sometimes with the disease brucellosis, osteitis occurred in an acute form and most often had mild symptoms. It was possible to detect it only during radiography.

BChC osteitis is a disease that occurs as a result of improper or untimely vaccination against tuberculosis in children. Most often it develops against the background of colds.

Symptoms

Symptoms will be determined by the degree of damage to the bone tissue, the general condition of the person, the cause of the disease and the presence of any concomitant diseases. The onset of the disease is very easy to miss.

The first stage usually produces no visible symptoms. The person does not feel pain in the bone tissue, there is no general deterioration in the condition and he feels as usual.

Osteitis will give out its presence only at the onset of the acute form of the disease, and until this moment it will burn a lot of time and the moment of rapid treatment will be missed.

The acute form of bone inflammation is characterized by the presence of pain syndrome at the site of osteitis. After this, there is swelling of the affected area, swelling and redness.

The degree of functioning of the limb may change due to the appearance of edema, in addition, the pain at the site of the lesion increases. Doctors do not exclude the formation of a bone fracture at the site of the cavity during this period.

Secondary deformation may occur. If the spinal column is affected, the functions of the nerve endings and the spinal cord will be impaired. Such symptoms will be characteristic of the tuberculous form of the disease of the spine.

If the disease affects the periosteum and tissues that protect the bone, then a fistulous passage or phlegmon is formed.

The chronic form of osteitis can develop into periodontitis (if the disease affects the maxillofacial bones of the skull). With this type of disease, a person has a thickening of the jaw bones (it can be both on one side and on two).

Most of the jaw may be affected by this lesion. Even if the osteitis is no more than 1 cm in size, bone inflammation can completely invade the left or right side of the jaw. This will depend on the location of the disease.

The presence of an acute form of the disease can develop when a person does not feel well. The reason for this can sleep any infectious and colds (flu, acute respiratory infections, ARVI).

Often the cause can be frequent. The symptomatology of the disease can most often be implicit and in no way give out the presence of the disease.

Most often, the remains can only be detected in its acute form. A timely visit to the doctor and diagnosis of the disease will significantly simplify the treatment. If not treated promptly, the disease can develop new foci in human bone tissue.

Diagnosis of the disease

Diagnosis is carried out based on the information received about the quality and condition of bone tissue.

This information is taken after obtaining a high-quality X-ray. On it, the disease will look like a focus of bone tissue changes.

There may be several foci, they will be chaotic in shape, size and degree of damage. The initial stage of the disease will be considered a change that does not reach 2-3 mm.

Treatment of the disease

The following methods are used to treat bone inflammation:

• Surgical method. An operation is performed to remove the affected area of \u200b\u200bthe bone. After that, spokes are inserted into healthy bones and the Ilizarov apparatus is used for fusion;
• Physiotherapy. The main method of physiotherapy will be HBO, UVF and infrared laser treatment;
• and. The diet should include foods rich in calcium, protein, phosphorus and iron. It is necessary to take a course of amino acids (lysine, glutamine, arginine). Of the vitamins, doctors recommend C, D, K.

Conclusion

The sooner a given disease is diagnosed, the easier and faster its treatment will be.

You need to protect yourself from falls and injuries, eat foods rich in vitamins and minerals, and give in to stressful situations less.

Video: Osteomyelitis

The pain that occurs in the bones can be a signal of quite serious diseases and it is vital to understand the causes of the disease. The prerequisites for the development of pathology and the occurrence of pain can be metabolic disorders, inflammatory processes, a lack of important minerals, the occurrence of tumors and many others. Each of the above groups of disorders has its own list of diseases and the corresponding causes of bone pain. Regardless of the nature of the disease, with systematic pain, you need to see a doctor.

Inflammatory processes

They arise as a result of infections entering the bone tissue, as well as after physical negative impact. Chemical factors also have an effect.

Inflammatory processes are divided into two groups:

1. specific;
2. non-specific.

In the first case, inflammation is caused by a specific pathogen, and in the second, by various irritants.

Infectious inflammations associated with the penetration of infections and viruses into the body are especially common. So, for example, when sick with the flu, many patients complain of painful sensations in the bones. With a successful deliverance from the disease, the sensation returns to normal.

In other cases, the causes of the disease with the subsequent occurrence of bone pain are:

• purulent pathogens that penetrate an open wound and organs;
• tuberculous bacilli;
• causative agents of syphilis.

Osteomyelitis is a special case of such pathologies - inflammation of bone tissue accompanied by purulent abscesses. Often occur due to direct infection with serious injuries, various procedures and open fractures.

Metabolic causes: malnutrition, metabolism and nutrient absorption

The metabolic factor lies in the lack of essential minerals in food or in the violation of their perception by the body.

Lack of essential minerals that form the basis of a healthy human skeleton leads to many diseases. So, in some cases, a lack of calcium in the body can lead to bone diseases. This factor is the most widespread. Specific diets, which lack not only calcium, but also other essential elements, can additionally cause harm. With an insufficient amount of phosphorus, calcium, collagen and protein, it is impossible to maintain the health of the skeleton and its parts. It should be noted that rare exposure to the sun reduces the ability to obtain vitamin D, which is important for the absorption of calcium. In this case, additional intake of vitamin D with the help of food supplements is necessary if the food intake does not contain sufficient amounts of it.

Also, destructive factors that reduce the level of metabolism and absorption of nutrients can be an excess of the norm of cortisol, lack of mobility, age factor, hormonal drugs and other medications.

It should be noted especially the negative effect of low mobility, which contributes to the development of metabolic disorders. In cases when a person, for some reason, cannot move independently sufficiently (trauma, stroke, coma), his bone tissue slows down in development. Impaired metabolism can also be of a congenital nature - in this case, slow or defective development is also noted.

Particular cases of metabolic pathologies:

• Osteoporosis... Decreased bone mass and overgrowth of obese bone marrow due to impaired remodeling associated with a bias from the process of tissue creation towards resorption.
• Rickets in children and its analog in adults - osteomalacia... It manifests itself in the form of a violation of the formation of bones and their mineralization (mainly calcium). Reason: vitamin D deficiency, the consequence of which contributes to the violation of enchondral and membranous ossification.

Congenital pathology

• Osteogenesis imperfecta... It is characterized by impaired metabolism and synthesis of collagen, as a result of which there is a slowdown in growth and frequent fractures. Most often, pathology manifests itself in the form of Lobstein-Frolik disease.
• Osteopetrosis... Associated with the pathology of the formation of bone density.
• Achondroplasia... It manifests itself in the form of dwarfism as a result of improper development due to a violation of the processes of enchondral osteogenesis.

Hormonal diseases

Excessive production of their hormones by the adrenal cortex, thyroid, parathyroid glands and the occurrence of parathyroid hormone hyperfunction (hyperparathyroidism, fibrous osteodystrophy) lead to atrophic and hypertrophic bone disorders.

The process can be complicated by subsequent multiple fractures, including those accompanied by bleeding. Therefore, it is impossible to allow such a deep development of pathology and diagnose the symptoms of bone diseases in the early stages.

Even today, cysts and tumors in bones are not well understood. However, it is known that in many cases they are provoked by hereditary factors, trauma and the effect of radiation. A probable reason for the appearance of a tumor may be its primary presence in another organ, and then the transition to the skeletal part.

Additional risk factors for bone pain

In most cases, bone pain does not appear due to the nature of the nervous system. But their appearance is very unpleasant.

The main factors that cause bone pain are:

To help avoid possible risks, a more detailed acquaintance with each of the causes of bone disease that was not discussed in the previous section is intended.

This cause of bone pain is familiar to athletes or working people whose activities involve hard physical work. The pain makes itself felt at night or when making movements. It is usually felt in the legs, since they are subjected to the greatest stress. As a rule, single or non-systematic cases of pain from physical stress are eliminated with the help of ointments and warming agents. Prolonged or particularly uncomfortable pain is the reason for going to the doctor.

Trauma

Depending on the nature of the injury, the pain of an injury is different. If the bone itself is directly damaged, then acute pain occurs. It is necessary to immediately contact a medical institution, since untimely or improper treatment can lead to infections, and as a result, the formation of inflammatory processes.

Blood diseases

Diseases of the blood provoke the occurrence of extremely excruciating pain in the spine, ribs, and pelvis. Painful sensations are especially pronounced in those parts that are mechanically influenced. Diseases of the blood cause bone marrow damage, fragility and fractures.

Thus, knowing the main causes of the disease, it is necessary to observe the correct lifestyle aimed at improving the body, and not destroying it.
