Abnormal bone growth

DrOwl

@drowl

Bone disorders in children can result from causes that affect people of all ages, including injury, infection (osteomyelitis), or cancer. Causes of bone disorders that affect mainly children typically involve the gradual misalignment of bones, which is caused by forces exerted on the growth plates as children are developing.
