What to do if there is no fracture but the bone cortex is not smooth enough

What should I do if there is no fracture but the bone cortex is not smooth enough?

The absence of fracture but uneven bone cortex is generally caused by bone contusion, lumbar disc herniation, osteoporosis, bone tuberculosis, osteomyelitis, etc., which can be treated through general treatment and drug therapy.

1. Bone contusion:

Bone contusion is a minor bone injury that sometimes cannot be shown well in X-ray examinations, and the bone cortex may be uneven. Generally, you need to rest for three to four weeks to allow the bone contusion to heal and the disease to gradually recover.

2. Lumbar disc herniation:

Lumbar intervertebral discs are generally composed of nucleus pulposus, annulus fibrosus and cartilage plate. If degenerative lesions occur in the lumbar intervertebral disc, the annulus fibrosus will be partially or completely ruptured, and the local bone cortex will be uneven. You can take Yaotongning Capsules, Yaotongtong Capsules, Shujin Jianyao Pills and other drugs for treatment under the guidance of a doctor.

3. Osteoporosis:

It is usually caused by aging, changes in hormone levels in the body, etc., which can cause damage to the microstructure of bone tissue, increase bone brittleness, and cause changes in the bone cortex. You can take oral calcium acetate capsules, alfacalcidol soft capsules, oyster calcium tablets and other drugs under the guidance of a doctor.

4. Bone tuberculosis:

Destructive lesions caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis invading the skeletal system can lead to cortical bone abnormalities. Drugs such as tuberculosis pills, rifampicin capsules, and pasniazid tablets can be used for treatment under the guidance of a doctor.

5. Osteomyelitis:

It is a bone-destructive inflammation caused by bacterial infection. Severe inflammation can lead to new bone hyperplasia, forming a shell, causing bone thickening and roughness. You can use drugs such as vancomycin hydrochloride, linezolid tablets, and sodium fusidate for injection for treatment according to the doctor's advice.

It is recommended that patients promptly improve other related examinations under the guidance of a doctor, actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment after clarifying the cause of the disease, and do not delay the disease to avoid affecting their health.
