Other ossification of muscle - what does this mean
Other ossification of muscle is a rare condition where bone forms in the muscle tissue instead of the normal connective tissue. it can be caused by trauma, infection, or an underlying genetic disorder, and can lead to pain, stiffness, and difficulty in movement.
What happens during the disease - other ossification of muscle
Other ossification of muscle is a condition in which muscle tissue is replaced by bone. this is caused by a mutation in the gene that is responsible for regulating the production of proteins involved in bone formation. this mutation causes the body to produce too much of these proteins, leading to an abnormal increase in bone formation in the muscle. this can cause pain, stiffness, and reduced range of motion in the affected area.
