👉 Phthonosema is a type of bone formation disorder characterized by the abnormal growth of bones, often associated with bone loss and deformity. It involves the growth of bone at an early age, typically between 10-25 years old, rather than during the typical adult growth phase. This condition can lead to various complications including osteoporosis, which is a common bone disease characterized by weakened bones due to the accumulation of calcium in the skeleton.
