Osteomalacia is an osteochondroma, often found in the epiphysis of the bone. As adolescents grow and develop, osteomalacia usually does not continue to grow, so osteomalacia is not very harmful. Some very small osteomalacia can produce no symptoms or harm, while others are large and can cause localized pressure and irritation. If it is located in the proximal part of the joint, it can cause pain around the joint and interfere with the movement of the tendons, ligaments, and stops of the joint capsule. The relatively rare osteochondroma also has a tendency to become malignant, but it is very rare and almost uncommon. Therefore, regular follow-up and review of the osteochondroma should also be performed, as well as if there are symptoms of pain, nighttime pain or swelling at the site of the osteochondroma.
