How do healthcare providers treat avascular necrosis?

Your treatment will depend on the amount of damage to your bones. Potential treatments you might have if your bone damage is limited to smaller bones that don't bear weight include:

  • Cold packs.
  • Heat treatment.
  • Rest.
  • Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).
  • Physical therapy to ease joint tenderness and increase range of motion.
  • Walking aids such as canes and crutches.
