Bone spurs, also known as bone redundancy, usually occur in the middle-aged and elderly population. The loss of bone tissue components, such as calcium loss and reduced proteoglycan content with age, leads to degenerative disease of the bone joints and the formation of bone spurs due to abnormal bone repair, indicating the aging and degeneration of the human bone joints. Bone spurs can be removed after surgery, but they may regenerate and therefore cannot be completely cured. Not all bone spurs need to be treated, but they can be observed if they are asymptomatic. In addition to age, bone spurs may be related to the following factors: 1) osteoarthritis: local inflammation damages the joint bone, causing uneven local forces and producing bone spurs during normal tissue repair; 2) autoimmune system diseases: such as gout, lupus, ankylosing spondylitis, rheumatoid arthritis, etc. These diseases do not necessarily cause bone spurs, but because of the inflammatory stimulus may cause bone growth, which in turn 3, trauma: due to trauma, fractures, bone fractures and other bone tissue damage, in the recovery process of the joint part of the uneven force, bone abnormal repair, that may produce bone spurs; 4, other triggering factors: bone spurs can also be induced by overweight, joint deformity, joint or tendon injury, joint overwork, abnormal bone cell metabolism, etc., may also be caused by genetic factors, congenital deformities. The development of bone spurs can be prevented by adopting good lifestyle habits, paying attention to daily warmth, and taking appropriate physical exercise, such as swimming, Tai Chi, and jogging, according to your condition. The bone spur is a normal degeneration of the body and should be treated as such. It can be controlled by medication, physical therapy or surgically removed.
