Osteochondrosis
Osteochondrosis commonly occurs in childrens and is
a condition of defective bone formation in the epiphysis
or growing part of the skeleton.
No one knows the exact cause, although it is probably
due to circulation disturbance to that part of the bone.
Osteochondrosis can occur in many areas of the body,
but the more common examples are as follows:
Freiberg's
Infraction
Pain
in the ball of the foot
Kohler's
disease
Pain in the Navicular
(bone near ankle)
Osgood-Schlatter
Disease
Tenderness in the
