What causes osteitis?
osteitis is a bone disease. The condition is long -term and causes bone growth irregularities. Osteitis also causes bones to deform, weak and more often break. The cause of osteitis is unknown.
In osteitis, regular bone cell growth is disrupted. There is a rapid disintegration of the bone and new cells must be produced very quickly. The final result is weaker bones. Due to excessive bone cell production, bones are also larger than they should be.
Some scientific findings indicate evidence of hereditary cause of osteitis. Four out of ten people who have a condition also have a family history of this disease. Other findings suggest that the condition may be caused by a form of virus, but that has not been proven. The curvature of the spine and legs may also occur. There are also some cases where the skull increases. The muscle weakness occurs when the bones are enlarged and pressure is on the nerves. The most commonly affected areas include legs, skull, collar, spine and pelvis. Boys and dizziness can also occur due to pressure on the nerves in the head. Arthritis is another symptom of the condition. Bone breakage can be caused by very small injuries or for no reason.
Some people who suffer from osteitis have no symptoms at all. The diagnosis is made by means of X -rays and bone scans as well as blood tests. There is a larger number of chemicals in the blood suffering from osteitis than in the blood of a healthy person.
Treatment is usually not necessary if there is no pain or discomfort. However, treatment is required if any complications are expected in the future due to Diseas. Medicines such as bisphosphonate are used to reduce the speed of the disease. The rapid growth of new bone cells can be reduced by this method and bone cells should grow normally.
