AVASCULAR NECROSIS

DESCRIPTION

Avascular necrosis is a problem occurring in bones in which bone tissue i.e. bone tissue starts dying. Simply put, bones start melting. The reason for this disease is that due to obstruction of blood flow, sufficient amount of blood is not able to reach the tissue. And if any tissue will not get proper amount of blood then there will be lack of nutrition due to which these tissues start dying. This disease is also known as osteonecrosis. Mostly this problem occurs in the hip bone, due to which the round part of the femur which forms the hip joint starts to melt. Although this problem can occur at any age, but mainly people between the age group of 30 to 60 years suffer more from it.

REASON

• There are many causes of avascular necrosis. Injury to the joints or bones: Any injury or discomfort to the joint, such as an opening of the joint, can damage the blood vessels near it.
• Fat deposition in blood vessels – Sometimes fat deposits in the blood vessels, due to which these vessels become narrow. Because of this, blood does not reach the bones, due to which they do not get enough nutrition.
• Illness – Even if there are medical conditions like sickle cell anemia and Gaucher’s disease, there is not enough blood to reach the bones. Apart from all this, there are some such unintentional reasons, due to which this disease takes people in its grip.
  

SYMPTOMS OF AVASCULAR NECROSIS

• Pain (may come and go or be constant)
• Stiffness or “tightness” in the joint
• Limping or gait changes
• Refusal to use joints or do certain activities
• Problems climbing or descending stairs.
  

WHO IS AT RISK

• People who take high doses of dexamethasone and prednisone 
• Children above 10 years of age
• Sickle cell disease
• Excessive radiation to the bone
• Asparaginase and Dexamethasone Treatment
• Hereditary genetic changes.
  

WHAT TO DO IF YOU DON’T HAVE AVN?

• Excessive consumption of alcohol and tobacco are known to be the biggest reasons behind AVN. That is why it is most important that you keep a distance from the consumption of these things. Because alcohol and tobacco cause many small droplets of fat in the body to flow here and there and over time they get deposited in small blood vessels and stop the flow of blood. And due to lack of nutrition, your bones or joints start to rot.
• Apart from this, another major cause of AVN is the uncontrolled and incorrect use of steroids. Steroids are mixed in large amounts in many products these days in order to gain weight, reduce or increase height. Due to this wrong use of steroids, there is a wrong effect on the bones and the bones start melting. That is why it is important that whatever treatment you get done, you should get it done only under the guidance of a trained doctor or Vaidya. So that you can stay away from a dreaded disease like AVN.
