If You Have Been Diagnosed with Osteomyelitis You Should Immediately Apply for Osteomelitis Short and Long Term Disability Benefits
Osteomyelitis is an infection of the bone and symptoms include:
- Fever and chills
- Pain in the area of infection
- Swelling over the area of the infection
If you have had any of these symptoms, you should immediately see a physician. Nancy Cavey, an osteomyelitis long term disability attorney, often sees cases of osteomyelitis caused by staphylococcus bacteria which is a germ commonly found on the skin or even the nose of healthy individuals.
This bacteria can enter the bone as a result of a severe fracture or puncture wound that gives infections a route to enter into your bone. Additionally, surgery to repair broken bones or even joint replacement surgery can accidentally result in osteomyelitis. If you have been diagnosed with osteomyelitis, you most likely will require surgery to remove parts of the infected bone that have died. You will have strong course of antibiotics which is delivered intravenously over six to eight weeks.
If your claim for short or long term disability benefits as a result of osteomyelitis has been denied, you should contact osteomyelitis long and short term disability attorney, Nancy Cavey, who practices throughout the state of Florida and the United States.
Don’t let your long term disability carrier rob your peace of mind if you have been diagnosed with osteomyelitis and later denied the pain for your short or long term disability benefits.
