A vertebral compromise can occur in the spine or bones of anyone if they are suffering from Paget's disease..
This serious disease can lead to a compromise of the méspinal cord in the spine and compressing nerves which can ultimately lead to painful vascular disease or parestésica (paralyzing).
This disease can lead to quadriparesis or quadriparestesia (paralysisón of the body from the neck down or weakness) if it's not dealt with at the right times.
Among the degenerative diseases of the bones, spaghettiéThere is Paget's Disease.

Causes of Paget's disease
The cause of this Paget's disease aúno in studies, it is of histol typeógico. This means that in a defect in the césquid óseas.
In the process of life the césquid óseas are destroyed and reconstituted, is a process that occurs between cébone cells called osteoclasts and osteocytes.
The level of destructionón of osteoclasts never exceeds the level of reconstructionón, so there must be a balance between both types of césquid.
In Paget's disease, this process does not work and the osteocytes continue to reconstitute cébone cells caused an exaggerated level of growth in some bones.
When this occurs at the spine level and affects the spine, the person can be paralyzed and their pain can be quite complicated.
Some studies méDoctors categorize Paget's disease and its vertebral involvement as a rheumático. so it is alsoéNo of the type of degenerative bone diseases
FíPhysically it may resemble rheumatoid arthritis although it does not produce such compromises..
Diagnóstico of the disease
When there is a cliíonly one diagnosed by a méI say, where there is a vertebral compromise, signs and sísymptoms of regrowth and compressionón óbe or worse thanún important squares or paresis, the méspecialist doctor can do these studies:
- Radiographerías the X Rays, imágenes
- Anáblood lysis: complete laboratories with indicators óthe guilty partyáticos
- Gamma graphía ósea, measuring bone density is important
An exaggerated regrowth in the vertebrae of the spine at the lumbar level is evident in an image, cervical, dorsal or sacral. By this time there may be vertebral involvement with nerves or vessels.
Treatments of the disease
While the disease has not generated compromise in the méspinal game, vascular or paresis, the disease can be treated with the following treatments:
Analgésicos AIMEs, Paget's disease is treated with anti-inflammatories and pain medications in general.
Bisphosphonate drugs, as long as bad growth can be inhibited óseo, much progress is made in this disease
Cirugías ortopétips: in order to solve the problems óorthop order seoséI say and prevent including itóno nerves.
Administer calcitonin by injectionón subcutánea.
In the úlast toñthey have been treated Paget's disease with physiotherapeutic treatment, which can give excellent results to decompress nerves and reduce inflammation ánerve areas.
By úlast, those who suffer from this disease are advised to carry moderate weights, walk and stand, to avoid paresis or compressionón. The MéMedical specialists can inform you about the exercises you can do to improve and alleviate the condition.ón.
