ABSTRACT

Upper limb pain is one of the most common manifestations of pain. The origin can vary widely and can be the result of several aetiologies. In this work, we present a case of a patient with cervicobrachial syndrome who overlapped with another nosology unit. Despite the treatment provided, worsening and unrelenting pain in the right forearm led to hospitalization of the patient. A rare case of osteomyelitis without previous history of accident or surgical intervention was diagnosed as a result of the detection of inflammatory changes and with imaging techniques. Knowledge of the characteristic clinical picture and findings of the physical examination in conjunction with imaging and laboratory examinations can help identify the source of patient difficulties; accurate clinical diagnoses will facilitate the appropriate diagnostic measures and treatment.
