Discitis won't heal on its own. It requires antibiotic therapy for 3-6 months, and sometimes surgery. Without treatment, the infection worsens, destroys bone, and can lead to paralysis. Always seek medical care if you suspect spinal infection. #Discitis #SpineSurgery
When you have rotting teeth or severe gum disease, large amounts of bacteria enter your bloodstream every time you brush. In vulnerable patients, these bacteria can travel to the spine and cause discitis: a serious infection that takes months to treat. #Discitis #SpinalInfection

Alert:
If you have cattle in your compound & you get back pain with fever, check for brucellosis. Brucella from infected animals can get transmitted to humans through animal secretions and raw milk. It can infect your spinal disc and bone. #Discitis

Too many Drs assume we‘re addicts. I do understand there are some people that seek drugs from Drs. Yet, do NOT tell me when I’m in the ER in excruciating pain after listening for 2 minutes and say, “Fine, I’ll get you some morphine & you can go home.” #Discitis
Feeling awful. This #Coronavirus still has hold of me. Spoken to NHS 111. Desperate to avoid a hospital trip 😷 AND I'm having to apply for #UniversalCredit as June is a very loooong way off #selfemployed oh, mum is in hospital too with #Discitis Disc infection. So #NoAprilFools
#IDtwitter - can you help? I’m sure I read a recent paper about improved pathogen yield in #discitis using post-biopsy blood cultures but now I can’t find it. Was I dreaming?

An MRI scan gives accurate information allowing treatment to be planned. #spine #sepsis #infection #discitis #mri #scan #mriscan #diagnosticimaging #diagnosis #sepsisawareness #thinksepsis
The symptoms may be vague and varied but be suspicious in a patient with PAIN & UNWELL esp fever. #spine #suffolk #infection #sepsis #thinksepsis #discitis #osteomyelitis #abscess #essex #norfolk #urgent
On call week. Thought I had better cover spinal infection. Getting more common and can be devastating. #spine #infection #sepsis #discitis #backpain #lowbackpain #redflags #epiduralabscess #microbiology #staphylococcus
La edad avanzada, la diabetes, traumatismos severos, el alcoholismo y procesos que disminuyen las defensas del organismo, son factores que nos predisponen a padecer discitis de manera espontánea. ¡Cuidate!
