Article Synopsis
- Spontaneous osteonecrosis of bones has been linked to both COVID-19 and steroid treatments, often appearing within two months after infection, with painful joints being a common symptom.
- A case study described a young female who experienced knee pain following COVID-19, which was confirmed as osteonecrosis likely due to steroid use, and she responded well to conservative treatment.
- The report emphasizes the need for healthcare providers to consider osteonecrosis in young patients with unexplained knee pain and a history of COVID-19, as conservative management often yields good outcomes.
