Sinovitis tóxica - Treatment

Nombres alternativos

Sinovitis transitoria

Tratamiento:

El tratamiento a menudo incluye limitar la actividad para que el niño se sienta más cómodo, sin embargo, no hay peligro asociado con la realización de actividades normales. El médico puede prescribir antinflamatorios no esteroides (AINES) para reducir el dolor.

Pronóstico:

El dolor de cadera desaparece al cabo 7 a 10 días.

Posibles complicaciones:

La sinovitis tóxica desaparece de manera espontánea y no es de esperarse que se presenten complicaciones a largo plazo.

Cuándo contactar a un profesional médico:

Solicite una cita con el pediatra si:

  • Su hijo tiene un dolor de cadera inexplicable y cojera con o sin fiebre.
  • A su hijo se le diagnosticó sinovitis tóxica y el dolor de cadera persiste por más de 10 días, el dolor empeora o se presenta fiebre alta.
