osteoporosis
osteomyelitis
osteomalacic
rickets
arthritis
bursitis
fractures
rheumatoid arthritis
osteoarthritis
gout - ANS-Inflammatory/degenerative diseases
caused by increased porosity of bone
makes bones more fragile
caused by aging process or reduced estrogen levels
after menopause
medications
lack of v D3, painful
weight training builds up - ANS-Osteoporosis
inflammation of bones
affectschildren whose bones are still growing
long bones are most often affected
usually caused by infection
treat with high-dose antibiotics - ANS-Osteomyelitis
softening of bone in adults
affects mainly spine, pelvis and legs
caused by vitamin D deficiency and inadequate calcium
adult form of rickets - ANS-osteomalacia (adult rickets)
failure of bone to calcify in children
may result in malformation - ANS-rickets
inflammation of a joint - ANS-arthritis
most serious and crippling form of arthritis
chronic condition, no cure, progressive
inflammatory
affects women more frequently than men, runs in families - ANS-rheumatoid arthritis
, most common form of arthritis
accompanies aging
constant wear & tear in joints
chronic irritation
joint injury - ANS-osteoarthritis
caused by build up of uric acid crystals in joints
most frequently affects big toe
can be hereditary,runs in family
cherry juice, affect mostly males - ANS-Gout
inflammation of bursae
bursae-small fluid sacs located near the joints that reduce friction in movement
the shoulder is most frequently affected, rotor cup also - ANS-bursitis
breakage in bones - ANS-fractures
scoliosis
achondroplasia - ANS-genetic/ developmental
curvature of the spine - ANS-scoliosis
congenital defect in formation of cartilage at the epiphyses of long bones
results in dwarfism
sometimes accompanies rickets - ANS-achondroplasia
paget's disease
osteosarcoma
pott's disease
osteoma - ANS-hyperplastic/neoplastic
overproduction of bone
usually in the skull, vertebrae and pelvis, fragile
bones soften and overgrow
brittle bones and fractures result in spine curvature - ANS-paget's disease
affects the ends of long bones in young persons
usually affects knees
can also be a secondary site
easily fractured, usually metastasize from somewhere else - ANS-osteosarcoma
tuberculosis which affects the vertebral column in children
(child sits on potty / potty affects children) - ANS-pott's disease
