They can grow from bones surrounding the spinal cord i.e. vertebra, muscles, nerve roots, duramater. Examples include metastasis, aneurysmal bone cysts, ewing s sarcoma, lymph...more

Movements of the hands, legs, back, hips, knees and wrists are controlled this way. For various reasons, however, these tissues grow stiff, thereby, reducing free movement. Any movement causes pain and stiffness and swelling of the joints, which forces the patient to reduce physical activity. This reduced activity further leads to the joints becoming st...more

Movement of the human body happens as a result of coordinated movement between the bones and the muscles. There are also cartilages that enable bones to move over and against each other, enabling body movement. Like other body parts, these are also prone to normal wear and tear. This causes bone movement to become less elastic, more rigid, and painful. This pain and inflammation of the bone joints are termed medically as osteoarthritis. It is one of the degenerative joint disease (DJD) of the bo...more
