Guide To Fibrous Dysplasia Warning Signs

Affected Bones

The condition might affect any bone, though fractures are most commonly seen in the thighbone, shinbone, upper arm bone, pelvis, skull, and ribs. It's important for the condition to be diagnosed and treated to help prevent further deformity and fractures. Abnormal bones begin to form before an individual is born, but there typically aren't symptoms until later in life. It's rare for fibrous dysplasia to occur in individuals beyond young adults.
