The most fundamental cause of osteophytes is the degeneration and aging of the bones, which is a normal physiological phenomenon in the aging process of the human body and a compensatory response of the body. If poor lifestyle, repeated ligament and muscle strains lead to calcium ion deposition, hematoma formation ossification, and the more times the osteophytes are stimulated the more rapidly they develop. Prolonged low head and neck muscle strain can lead to osteophytes in the neck. Long-term bending and local cooling can lead to lumbar spine osteophytes, and long-term hiking and long-distance walking can lead to knee and heel osteophytes. Osteomalacia is mostly seen in middle-aged and elderly patients, and the incidence of osteomalacia is more pronounced in those with weakness or calcium deficiency and osteoporosis. Muscles are connected to bones through tendons, and a long time in one position or repeated for a period of time can lead to tendon adhesions, repeated strains and bleeding on bone joints, and finally hematoma machine can form osteophytes. Commonly found in the cervical spine, lumbar spine and other parts of greater mobility, as well as the knee and other joints with greater load, so the most fundamental cause of osteophytes, is the degeneration and aging of the bones.
