Abnormal changes in bone strength and structure can happen from a poor diet, hormonal changes, bacterial infections or genetic birth defects. Fortunately, many bone conditions are treatable once a diagnosis is made, usually by X-ray or bone density tests. Learn about the most common bone conditions and how they are treated in this section.
