Bone Spur
Osteophytic lipping is also known as a disc bulge. The treatment for a disc bulge is rest and non steroid anti inflammatories, for more advanced cases steroid injections can be tried.
Osteophytes are often called bone spurs. These bony protrusions form in and around joints, often causing pain and limiting range of motion. Many osteophytes are identified by their shape such as osteophytic ridging, spurring, or lipping. However, each osteophyte has a unique shape based on the cause and location.
Lipping or Osteophytic lipping is the body's reponse to wear and tear of the articular cartilage which the body is unable to replace. So in the best effort to repair it lays down bits of bone called osteophytes. These appear on x=ray and often the quality of bone is more like invory than real bone. Lipping of the inferior patella means that ther are osteophytes on the lower aspect of the patella ( knee cap ). This can lead to some pain and swelling and difficulty with knee actions.
Yes it is the result of arthritis. when cartilage in joints is worn to a point where bone begins to wear on bone, the bone begins to try to repair itself by replacing bonr that is worn away. this leads to an edge forming that tightens and stiffens joints.
