Suggest Treatment For Osteomylitis

You should get regular dressing
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I have gone through your case and I can understand your situation as osteomyellitis is difficult problem to treat. If you are having pus or any discharge is coming out of your foot then I would suggest you to get regular dressings. If wound is healed and dry then dressing can wait for a week. Oral antibiotics are not sufficient but ok for six to seven days.
You have not mentioned if you are a Diabetic, but if you are then danger is little high. I would recommend you to visit hospital as soon as possible.
I hope this answer will help you. Let me know if you want to ask any other questions.
Thanks.


No there is no harm in 2 days
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
It is good that you are not diabetic. If your wound is not hot and warm and there is no active sign of pus then 2 to 3 days are not going to make any harm to you. Just continue your antibiotics.
Please write a review.
Wish you a fast recovery.
Thanks.
