Osteomyelitis is an infection of the bone and is often a delayed diagnosis given the ambiguity of the signs and symptoms. Listen in on how you might be able to better detect and treat osteomyelitis without delay.

Pediatricians Tammy and Lidia take full responsibility for any errors or misinformation. Key points: * Osteomyelitis can present as limp or hesitancy with movement; this can occur with or without fevers and localizing signs. * Main diagnostics include CRP, which also aids in assessing treatment response. * Treatment is a long course of antibiotics. Typically, starting empiric IV antibiotics in the hospital and then transitioning to oral agents.
