Myonecrosis treatment in Cuauhtémoc

Myonecrosis is the death of muscle tissue, that is, a process in which the muscle fibers are damaged irreversibly and stop performing their function.

Common causes: It can be associated with infections, an interruption of blood flow to the muscle, major trauma, or other processes that compromise the integrity of the tissue.

Possible manifestations: Intense pain in the affected area, swelling, changes in skin coloration, and a feeling of general malaise are signs that should not be ignored.

When to seek care? Because of how quickly it can progress, with very intense muscle pain accompanied by swelling or skin changes, it is prudent to receive medical care without delay. The orthopedist and the infectious disease specialist are among the professionals who evaluate this type of condition.
