Hello, I had a fracture in my fibula and I had an operation, but unfortunately my infection infected me, i.e. coli. I was bedridden for 8 months. 4 months after the first operation, the plate was removed and then I remained on antibiotics. The doctor is currently telling me that the bones have not healed, so we must do a bone transplant. In two stages: the stage of removing dead bones and placing a cement-shaped substance containing antibiotics for a month and a half under supervision. A membrane is formed, then we transplant bone from the fragment or another place.I want to know whether it works or not and whether I can get rid of E. coli bacteria
@sarradjou5649 I'm sorry you're facing this challenging recovery. The staged approach your doctor outlined, with dead bone removal, antibiotic cement, and later bone grafting, is a proven method for treating non-healing fractures and infection. Successfully eradicating E. coli depends on the effectiveness of antibiotics and thorough infection management. While the process can be lengthy, with proper care, healing is achievable-trust your medical team and stay hopeful!
Man i had this pretty bad witn the bacteria pseudomonas aeruginosa.. i broke my arm at work in dec 2021 abd had surgery on it, they put a plate with 10 screws in my left humerus bone. Fast forward 8 months later in august of 2022 and i had to get another surgery cause i got a infection from the 1st one. The top part of the incision was swollen and it hurt, plus the whole time after my 1st surgery i had pain but they thought it was irritation from the metal. My surgeon said he was amazed at how i never got sick (im 29 yrs old and healthy) anyways they removed the metal and i was on antibiotics (cefepime) the bacteria i had has a mortality rate of %18-%62 i thought i was going to die after finding that out but i felt fine. I was sent home with a PICC line to do my own antibiotics. The infection took a small part of skin and muscle tissue from my arm so the scar looks kinda messed up from the top part of the incision but my strength is back and i have zero pain now. The scary part is that this infection can come back, it can be dormant. But it's been basically a year since my 2nd surgery and i am fine. Be careful getting surgerys although it is rare what i got it is mostly found in hospitals
@heatherkay1610 I'm fine now, it's been over a year since my 2nd surgery where they took out the metal implants.. haven't been on the antibiotics since last year and I have my strength back. But it left a pretty gnarly scar.
@Fifi_kiwi It sounds like you've been through a lot with osteomyelitis in your collarbone. The PICC line delivering antibiotics directly to your heart is a common treatment for such infections, as it ensures the medication reaches the bloodstream effectively to fight off the infection. Recovery from osteomyelitis can take time, and it’s important to complete your treatment plan and have regular follow-ups to ensure the infection is fully cleared. Stay strong, and keep monitoring your health closely!
Has anyone any idea if a person has chronic osteomyelitis in the bones and clear the infection can new bone regrow and regenerate the way it was before the infection as the person I know has lost bone because it has became dead and damaged thanks for any advice!
Hi I’ve got a question my girlfriend has chronic osteomyelitis in the bones and her bones have been damaged and then they died due to the infection, can new bone regrow again if she can get rid of the infection and if the answer is yes what are the important steps she needs to take for new bone to regrow
@jjgillies I'm really sorry to hear about your girlfriend's struggle with chronic osteomyelitis. Osteomyelitis is a serious condition where an infection in the bone can lead to bone damage or even bone death if not treated effectively. If the infection is successfully treated and managed, new bone can potentially grow, but this depends on several factors including the extent of the damage, her overall health, and how well the infection is controlled. Here are some important steps to consider for new bone regrowth: 1. **Effective Infection Management**: The first and most critical step is to completely eradicate the infection. This typically involves a combination of long-term antibiotics, and in some cases, surgery to remove the dead or infected bone tissue. 2. **Surgical Intervention**: If there's significant damage, surgical procedures like debridement (removal of dead tissue) or bone grafting might be necessary. Bone grafting involves transplanting healthy bone tissue to the affected area to support the regeneration of new bone. 3. **Nutrition**: A balanced diet rich in calcium, vitamin D, and protein is essential for bone health. Ensuring she gets the right nutrients can support bone regeneration and overall recovery. 4. **Physical Therapy**: After the infection is controlled, physical therapy can help strengthen the surrounding muscles and improve mobility, which is crucial for the health of the bones. 5. **Regular Monitoring**: Continued monitoring by her healthcare provider is essential to ensure that the infection is fully eradicated and that the bone is healing properly. 6. **Lifestyle Factors**: Avoiding smoking and limiting alcohol consumption are important, as these can impair bone healing and overall health. The process of bone regrowth can be slow, and it may not always restore the bone to its original state, but with the right medical care and supportive measures, improvement is possible. It's important for her to work closely with her healthcare team to create a personalized treatment plan.
In New Zealand, it's concerning that amputation is often considered the first option for osteomyelitis. There are many alternative treatments available that can be effective and less invasive. ❤️
@@rashondaharris2586 antibiotics can work. In my case it was advanced. They wanted to chop my foot but I refused. The MRSA infection was in the joint of big toe. They cut out the bone joint amd inserted a wire to connect the 2 bones while new bone or scar tissue reconnects bones. Wire removed, no infection returned and healed up. Been 3 months since surgery and doing well. Kept foot and all my toes. Question your doctors. All the best mate
This is what they want to do with my girlfriend the medical system just gives up to quickly and follow big pharma instead of going and doing research to find other ways all they care about is money
@62.81 Osteomyelitis, a bone infection, can sometimes go unnoticed, especially in its early stages, as symptoms like pain, swelling, and fever may be mild or mistaken for other conditions. If left untreated, it can cause serious complications, so it's important to get a proper diagnosis through imaging and lab tests. If you've been diagnosed, treatment often involves antibiotics, and in more severe cases, surgery may be needed to remove infected tissue. If you're currently being treated, make sure to follow your doctor's recommendations to prevent recurrence or complications.

I'm glad you feel better now and thank you for sharing
Maybe I'll bag it, I'm walking 2 to 6 miles a day with a knee brace, maybe I'll start drinking again, this sounds awful
Oh my gosh I am going through this same thing right now. How are you doing now?

I have it

Yes, with proper treatment and management, it's possible for new bone to regenerate and restore function in areas affected by chronic osteomyelitis.
What is needed for this to happen mate
Help me I'm sick osteomyelitis how to treatment
Please visit a doctor.
God bless have mercy on you
Do you some research mate don’t always believe the doctors are the best option!
Can you get this from the gym or an insect bite? My mom had Lyme Disease

Thanks for the reply
She has been on antibiotics and they did nothing and she has also had surgery to remove dead bone
See the point you made in point 2 do you know if that can be done in the uk?
In NZ they just want to anputate as 1st option. It is cheapest

@MedicalCentric what other treatments are available. I am dealing with this now.

Bro tbh I'm fucked I have it on my collar bone
Sorry to hear that I hope you get better soon
I had osteomyelitis and didn’t even know it
Did the doctors miss it too? How did you finally get diagnosed? Thanks
@debbiemedford2065 you got to take an MRI scan in order to be diagnosed with it
