Acute bloodborne osteomyelitis

Acute hematogenous osteomyelitis (acute hematogenous osteomyelitis) is also called acute osteomyelitis, because most cases are caused by purulent bacteria caused by blood invasion of connective tissue in the bone marrow. A small number of infections have spread from adjacent soft tissues or secondary to open fractures. If not treated in time, the bone structure will be damaged and disability will occur, or the infection will spread, endangering life. Some cases can be turned into chronic diseases, and the course is lengthy. Since it is more common in children, it may affect children's nutrition and growth.
