Avascular necrosis
Reviving Hope: StemRx Hospital Breakthrough Offers New Lease on Life for Avascular Necrosis Patients!
Avascular necrosis, also known as osteonecrosis, is a debilitating condition characterized by the death of bone tissue due to a lack of blood supply. This interruption in blood flow deprives the affected bone of essential nutrients and oxygen, leading to its gradual deterioration. Although avascular necrosis can occur in any bone, it commonly affects the hip, knee, shoulder, and ankle joints. The exact cause of avascular necrosis can vary, ranging from traumatic injury to chronic conditions such as osteoarthritis, sickle cell disease, or excessive alcohol consumption. Additionally, certain medical treatments like radiation therapy and steroid medications can increase the risk of developing this condition.
Symptoms
Here are the key symptoms of Avascular necrosis:
-
Pain:
Persistent, deep-seated pain in the affected joint, typically worsened by weight-bearing or movement. The pain may start mild and gradually worsen over time.
-
Limited Range of Motion:
Difficulty moving the affected joint fully due to pain and stiffness.
-
Joint Dysfunction:
As AVN progresses, it can cause joint dysfunction, leading to instability and difficulty with activities such as walking or using the affected limb.
-
Joint Swelling:
Swelling around the affected joint, often accompanied by warmth and tenderness.
-
Muscle Atrophy:
Weakness and wasting of the muscles surrounding the affected joint due to decreased use and mobility.
-
Crepitus:
A grating or grinding sensation may be felt or heard when moving the affected joint.
-
Joint Collapse:
In advanced stages, AVN can lead to the collapse of the affected bone, causing severe deformity and further loss of function.
