Bone-related disorders encompass a range of conditions affecting bone structure, strength, and function. These disorders can include:
Osteoporosis: A condition characterized by weakened bones that are more prone to fractures due to decreased bone density.
Osteoarthritis: A type of arthritis where the cartilage that cushions the bones wears down over time, leading to pain and stiffness.
Rheumatoid Arthritis: An autoimmune disorder where the body's immune system attacks the joints, including the bones, leading to inflammation and pain.
Paget’s Disease of Bone: A disorder causing abnormal bone growth and weakening, leading to deformities and pain.
Bone Fractures: Breaks or cracks in bones due to trauma or conditions that weaken the bone.
Bone Cancer: Malignant tumors that form in the bone tissue.
Osteomyelitis: An infection in the bone, often caused by bacteria.
