Parametritis lateral is a serious disease that manifests itself in inflammation of the tissues around the hip joint. Inflammation occurs due to infections, bacterial or fungal, that enter the tissue through broken skin or near a wound, as well as after injury during surgery or a fall. The development of parametritis can vary depending on the cause - from mild redness to large-scale inflammation with throbbing pain, chills, and general weakness. Complications after parametritis can be irreversible and result in the loss of an organ or leg amputation surgery.
