Diffuse idiopathic skeletal hyperostosis (DISH) is a condition characterized by abnormal calcification/bone formation (hyperostosis) of the soft tissues surrounding the joints of the spine, and also of the peripheral or appendicular skeleton. [1]
Hyperostosis is an excessive growth of bone. It may lead to exostosis. It occurs in many musculoskeletal disorders. Disorders featuring hyperostosis include: [1] Camurati-Engelmann disease, type 2; Hypertrophic osteoarthropathy, primary, autosomal recessive, 2; Melorheostosis; Tumoral calcinosis, hyperphosphatemic, familial, 1; Worth disease
Ankylosing vertebral hyperostosis with tylosis is a rare autosomal dominant genetic disorder characterized by ossification of the paraspinal ligament, sclerosis of the sacroiliac joint, and punctate hyperkeratosis (affecting the soles and palms). [1]

Amplified musculoskeletal pain is a syndrome which is a set of characteristic symptoms and signs. Essentially, the syndrome is characterized by diffuse, ongoing, daily pain associated with relatively high levels of incapability and greater care-seeking behavior.
Osteosclerosis is a disorder characterized by abnormal hardening of bone and an elevation in bone density. It may predominantly affect the medullary portion and/or cortex of bone.
The signs and symptoms of ankylosing spondylitis often appear gradually, with peak onset between 20 and 30 years of age. [11] Initial symptoms are usually a chronic dull pain in the lower back or gluteal region combined with stiffness of the lower back. [12] Individuals often experience pain and stiffness that awakens them in the early morning ...
Porotic hyperostosis, is a pathological condition that affects bones of the cranial vault, and is characterized by localized areas of spongy or porous bone tissue. [1] The diploë , or spongy tissue within the bones of the cranium, swells and the tissue of the outer surface becomes thinner and more porous in appearance.
