AVN
AVN stands for Avascular Necrosis, also known as osteonecrosis. It is a medical condition characterized by the death of bone tissue due to a disruption in blood supply to the affected area. AVN commonly affects the hip joint, although it can also occur in other bones such as the knee, shoulder, or ankle. The condition can be caused by various factors such as trauma, excessive alcohol consumption, long-term use of corticosteroids, radiation therapy, or certain medical conditions. AVN can lead to pain, limited range of motion, and eventually, the collapse of the affected bone if left untreated. Treatment options include medication, physical therapy, assistive devices, and, in severe cases, surgery.
