Once the it has healrf up you can work but the type of job you can do depends very much on where you had the Osteo. Mine was in my left ankle which they froze in the end but it does limit what you can do. I am now quite badly disabled because of the way I have walked over the years. I still suffer with pain.

Yes. Osteomyelitis is not disability and yet disability is not inability. If one can have less or no pain, one can work in any profession or job comfortably. Pain is the only hindrance to mental concentration.

People with osteo can work. I believe you can do anything you want to do. I worked for many years in a variety of fields...mostly in office settings. I have no idea of percentages.
