HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern the infection of bony part if still there then this need to be treated and if it is not infection and just swelling is there then this need to be treated with the anti-inflammatory drugs only again if the condition is chronic one then just do nothing it would come around without any treatment but takes some times, no need to worry about this, hope this information helps you, have nice day.
