  https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/10395-bone-spurs-osteophytes

  Bone spurs, or osteophytes, are extra growths of bone tissue that appear like smooth lumps on the outsides of your bones. They’re common and they often don’t cause any problems. But they may cause symptoms if they irritate your soft tissues, interfere with the movement of a joint or put pressure on a nearby nerve. […] Bone spurs don’t always cause symptoms. It’s common to have bone spurs without knowing it. But sometimes, bone spurs are the reason for unexplained pain or stiffness when certain bones move. If a bone spur puts pressure on a nerve, it can cause symptoms like pain, tingling, numbness or weakness. […] Bone spurs on your spine are more likely than others to cause serious complications, although they don’t very often. One way they can is by interfering with nerves in your spinal cord. Even less commonly, bone spurs in your cervical spine (your neck) may grow big enough to interfere with your swallowing.

  https://www.health.harvard.edu/bone-spurs-overview

  Bone spurs, also called osteophytes, are outgrowths of bone that develop along the edges of bones, often where two or more bones meet. They can form in the back, hip, sole or heel of the foot, spine, neck, shoulder, or knee. […] Most bone spurs are caused by tissue damage brought on by osteoarthritis. Many are silent, meaning they cause no symptoms and only detected by an x-ray or other test for another condition. Others cause problems and require treatment. […] Symptoms vary depending on where the spur is located: heel. Pain when standing, walking, jogging, or running. Some people describe the pain as feeling like pins sticking into the bottom of their feet. knee. Pain when extending or bend the leg. hip. Pain when moving the hip, and a reduction in the hip’s range of motion. spine. Weakness or numbness in the arms or legs caused by the bone spur pinching the spinal cord or its nerve roots. shoulder. Limited movement of the shoulder; swelling or tears in the rotator cuff. finger. Pain when moving the finger; the finger joint may look enlarged and knobby. […] If a spur breaks off from the bone, it can linger in the joint or get stuck in the lining of the joint. Such wandering bone spurs are called loose bodies. A loose body can make it feel like you can’t move a joint. This „locking” can come and go.

  An osteophyte is a bony outgrowth or bone spur that develops slowly over time in and around joints. Bone spurs often do not cause symptoms. They usually only cause pain if they impinge on other structures (such as muscles or nerves) or grow so big that they make moving a joint more difficult. […] An osteophyte is not painful, but its effect on nearby structures can cause pain and other symptoms. There are several types of osteophytes that vary by their location and the symptoms they cause. […] The different types of bone spurs are: […] Central osteophytes. These bone spurs develop in the joint spaces of the hip, knee, shoulder, and other freely moving joints (diarthrodial joints). They can „catch” as you move a joint and cause pain as the spur rubs against muscle or nerves. […] Cervical osteophytes. These bone spurs develop on any of the seven spinal bones (vertebrae) of the cervical spine of the neck. They cause pinched nerves (nerve impingement) that lead to radiating pain or numbness in the neck and arm along with weakness of the neck and upper extremities.

  Bone spurs are bony growths that develop in response to inflammation caused by bone degeneration. Found widely in middle-to-older-aged adults, bone spurs occur in and around the joints of the body. […] As the body ages, a normal degree of wear and tear occurs. Not surprisingly, this wear and tear appears near places of high movement and friction Like the joints! Degeneration in the form of cartilage breakdown can lead to joint instability and subsequent inflammation from bone-on-bone contact. In an attempt to stabilize and fortify the damaged joint, the body reacts by growing more bone in the place of lost cartilage. […] These new bony growths, although developed with good intentions, are often what turns into painful bone spurs. […] The symptoms of spinal bone spurs can vary from person to person, and from location to location in the spine. For many, spinal bone spurs will create a legion of physical and sometimes neurological symptoms.

  Compression of a nerve root. The development of bone spurs can cause narrowing of the neural foramina, where the nerve roots exit the spinal column. With less space, the nerve roots may become compressed. Nerve root compression can cause paresthesia (tingling) if they become compressed. If the nerve root becomes inflamed, pain may occur. […] Compression of the spinal cord. Bone spurs can grow into the spinal canal, where the spinal cord travels, leaving less space for the spinal cord. Compression of the spinal cord can cause weakness, strength loss, pain and other symptoms. […] When bone spurs cause a space in the spine to narrow, it is called stenosis. People who experience a compressed nerve root or spinal stenosis due to bone spurs are typically in their 60s and 70s. […] While less common, it is also possible for bone spurs to directly irritate muscles and tendons. […] Bone spurs develop as people age. In fact, bone spurs in the spine are considered a normal finding on X-rays and MRI scans in adults.

  Bone spurs are generally considered Osteophytes. Osteophytes are irregular bone growths that occur in the vertebrae. It can develop for several reasons and one of the most common causes is friction that occurs within joints. When it experiences this kind of stress, the body tries to repair itself by creating more calcium deposits or bone. It attempts to strengthen the bones to counter the friction it is experiencing. These calcium deposits are bone spurs. […] Eventually, these irregular bone growths become large enough to affect nearby tissues which can result in excruciating symptoms. […] Bone Spurs can develop anywhere in the body, the vertebrae and the spine included. When these bone spurs develop in the spine, some of them become large enough to cause compression of nearby spinal nerve roots and columns. This compression results in varying symptoms.
