| Chronic metabolic skeletal disease, initial phase is marked by high rate of bone turnover. | Paget's Disease |
| Is a break or crack in a bone. | Fracture |
| Chronic inflammatory process of the joints and bones resulting in degeneration of joint cartilage and subsequent hypertrophy of the surrounding bone. | Osteoarthritis |
| Chronic, systemic, inflammatory disease affecting the synovial membranes of multiple joints. | Rheumatoid Arthritis |
| Called gouty arthritis, is a chronic disorder of uric acid metabolism. | Gout |
| Tearing or stretching of a ligament surrounding a joint that usually follows a sharp twist. | Sprains |

| This disease is also marked my tophi, deposits urate compounds in and around the joints of the extremities. | Gout |
| This disease may affect any joint in the body but especially weight-bearing ones such as the knee and hip. | Osteoarthritis |

| A break in the bone in which there is an open wound leading down to the site of the fracture or in which a piece of broken bone protrudes through the skin. | Open or compound fracture |
| One in which the bone is partially bent and split, as a green stick or twig does when bent. | Greenstick fracture |
| One in which the bone is broken with one end forced into the interior of the other. | Impacted fracture |
| One in which the bone is broken or splintered into pieces, often with fragments embedded in surrounding tissue. | Comminuted fracture |
