Paget's Disease

Paget's Disease is a chronic bone disorder where the normal cycle of bone renewal is disrupted, causing bones to become enlarged, misshapen, and weakened. This occurs because the body produces too much new bone tissue, leading to areas of abnormal growth. Symptoms may include pain, fractures, or joint issues, but some people may not notice any symptoms at all. The condition typically affects older adults and can be managed with medications and lifestyle changes. Understanding Paget's Disease is important for maintaining bone health and preventing complications over time.
