Features: The issues discussed in this book include a series of questions that patients frequently consult doctors about, often feel confused and worried about, frequently search for in medical encyclopedias or on the Internet, and often discuss with family and friends. The answers provided in the book are written with minimal use of professional terminology, striving to be comprehensive, detailed, and easy to understand. Part of the book focuses on issues related to bone health and physiological balance, covering many bone diseases and abnormal conditions. When explaining the issues, the book will use many interesting topics to shift the focus, such as whether men have fewer ribs than women, whether breaking the bones in literature is realistic, and why the bones in our feet do not wear out. The second part of the book primarily deals with bone injuries and abnormalities. This section is divided into several chapters based on the body parts involved, addressing general questions about bone abnormalities, such as osteogenesis imperfecta, achondroplasia, and secondary tumor-like deposits in bones.
