I have osteronecrosis ( ORN )in the jaw due to radiotherapy ( IGRT) of base tongue which I received 6 years ago . After taking hyperbaric O2 therapy and T Trental 400 mg for 3 months the Doctors gave up . Now they say surgical management is very challengingly even though there is a fracture in the decayed bone but after many months pain has subsided.I have a tracheaostomy tube also . Now they have kept me on surveillance . I am already on liquids for last 6 years and can't speak . Any advice from any experts.

Do osteronecrosis kills a person?
