	MedFriendly.com: Bone scan (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		A bone scan is a technique used to produce pictures of bones by first injecting a radioactive liquid substance into the body and then using a receiver to detect radioactive particles sent out by the body.
		The radioactive substance is attracted to bones and attaches to a material in the bones that is similar to calcium (a metallic element).
		A bone scan can tell the difference between an old bone break and a new bone break if the old bone break is healed and is not growing at a rate higher than the surrounding bones.

	Bone Spur
		Treatment directed at the cause of bone spurs may include weight loss to take some pressure off the joints (especially when osteoarthritis or plantar fasciitis is the cause) and stretching the affected area, such as the heel cord and bottom of the foot.
		If the bone spur continues to cause symptoms, your health professional may suggest a corticosteroid injection at the painful area to decrease pain and inflammation of the soft tissues next to the bone spur.
		Bone spurs can be surgically removed, or treated as part of a surgery to repair or replace a joint when osteoarthritis has caused considerable damage and deformity.

	Bone Spur -- Topic Overview
		Bone spurs due to aging are especially common in the joints of the spine and feet.
		Bone spurs also form in the feet in response to tight ligaments, to activities such as dancing and running that put stress on the feet, and to pressure from being overweight or from poorly fitting shoes.
		Bone spurs can form in this narrow area that, in turn, pinch the rotator cuff tendons, resulting in irritation, inflammation, stiffness, weakness, pain, and sometimes tearing of the tendon.
