Bone And Heel Spur
Bone and Heel Spurs are
bony projections that usually form along
joints.
Bone Spurs (osteophytes) form due to the increase in a damaged
joint's surface area. This is most commonly from the onset of
arthritis.
When surfaces of the
bone begin to project out from the body, these projections are called
bone spurs (osteophytes).
Heel spurs (calcaneal spur), is often associated with
plantar fasciitis and ankylosing spondylitis. A posterior
Heel Spur (calcaneal spur) may also develop on the back of the heel at the insertion of the
Achilles tendon
Bone Spurs usually limit
joint movement and typically cause pain.
