can osteomyelitis cause cancer
Confidence votes 1.7K. Osteomyelitis, is an infection of the bone, which is difficulty to treat due to low blood flow. Treatment is long (like 4 weeks) and usually via IV antibiotics. If you don't get that treated, bone cancer would be the least of your worry. You'd be more likely to die from the untreated infection sooner than any bone cancer can kill you.
