A member asked:
My boyfriend has a osteoid osteoma in his upper leg, is radiotherapy ablation available in south africa?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
More than likely: An advanced country such as South Africa will have radiation therapy facilities. You may wish to check with your local hospital. For good health - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats. Avoid saturated fats. Drink enough water daily, so that your urine is mostly colorless. Exercise at least 150 minutes/week and increase the intensity of exercise gradually. Do not use tobacco, alcohol, weed or street drugs in any form. Practice safe sex, if you have sex.
