Osteomalacia is a degenerative manifestation, just as the graying of hair, sagging skin, and the appearance of age spots are normal and natural manifestations of aging. Osteomalacia does not usually cause symptoms. It has a positive effect because it occurs during the degeneration of the bone in order to compensate for abnormal stresses, but it also reflects the presence of abnormal stresses. Importantly it does not usually cause pain or functional problems and often the osteophytes are discovered during a physical examination radiograph. Many people clinically have severe but asymptomatic osteophytes, even though the pain disappears, but the osteophytes remain. There are also patients with very severe pain but no osteophytes or very mild osteophytes, so osteophytes are not consistent with symptoms, not a positive relationship, and even less of a disease. Do not attribute pain and other problems to osteophytes, which delays the disease and may cause unnecessary psychological burden. Prevalent population 1, middle-aged and elderly people are common susceptible to osteophytes, because with the growth of age, the wear and tear of various organs of the human body is increasing, is a high incidence of osteophytes, cervical spine will also produce a variety of degeneration, and the occurrence of cervical osteophytes is common. 2, heavy manual laborers, often carrying heavy objects on their shoulders, certain athletes such as weightlifting, gymnastics, wrestling and other strenuous sports, are prone to injury to the lumbar spine, aggravating the strain and degeneration of the lumbar spine. 3, occupational diseases caused by sedentary people, such as office workers, accountants, assembly line employees, long-distance car drivers is a major reason for the trend of osteophytes showing a younger age, which is also the susceptible population of osteophytes in recent years. 4, osteophyte-prone people and long-term lack of calcium nutrition people, because the calcium can not keep up, is also very easy to suffer from osteophytes. The most important and basic treatment for osteophytes is to reduce the weight bearing of the joints and excessive and substantial activities, and to cherish the diseased joints in order to slow down the process of lesions. Second, obese people should reduce their body weight to reduce the load on the joints and slow down the development of lesions. Third, lower limb joints with lesions can be used crutches or walking sticks to reduce the burden on the joints. Physical therapy and appropriate exercises can be done to maintain the range of motion of the joints, and splinting supports and canes can be used when necessary to help control the symptoms in the acute stage. Fourth, for advanced cases, if the systemic condition can tolerate surgery, artificial joint replacement is a recognized effective method to eliminate pain, correct deformity and improve function, which can improve the patient’s quality of life.
