What are bone spurs and how do they affect people?

Answer 1

A bone spur is a bony growth formed on a normal bone, or what is sometimes called an "extra bone". They affect you by causing mild soreness to extreme discomfort.

How the effect people depends on the location. Bone spurs on the knees and shoulders can effect the range of motion of the joint. Bone spurs on the spine can cause pain and numbness to travel down the legs or arms.
