  2. What are Bone Spurs? Bone spurs are conditions of abnormal growth in bone affecting different parts of the body, especially where the bones meet each other. Due to the overgrowth of bone, a large bulge is formed on the joint or the bones which protrude out. This problem is called bone spurs. Bone spurs are also called osteophytes. It also affects the spinal cord including many parts of the body like arms, shoulders, neck, hips, knees, and feet. If the problem gets aggravated then it can become a serious condition for you. Remember, it also causes symptoms, if you pay attention to its initial condition.

In fact, the cushioning of cartilage between the joints and the spinal cord diminishes with age. Due to this, the problem of bone spurs occurs. Apart from this, diseases like rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, and gout also damage the joints. Bone spurs are caused by injuries to the joints or tendons. When the body gets a signal about bone damage, it tries to repair the bone by attaching it to the affected area. Not only this but bone spurs are caused due to long-running exercises, dancing, aging, poor diet, obesity, bone problems since birth, spinal stenosis, and genetic reasons.
