Bone Spur Information

Bone spur is the name given to the extra bone that emerges out of a normal bone. Though this bony growth is usually smooth, it might cause pain or even abrasion, especially when pressed or rubbed against some other bone or soft tissues, such as ligaments, tendons or nerves in the body. Spine, shoulders, hands, hips, knees, and feet are the most common places where a bone spur might occur. Bone spur is also known as osteophytes and might limit joint movement, causing immense pain.
