Osteochondritis is a painful type of osteochondrosis where the cartilage or bone in a joint is inflamed. It often refers to osteochondritis dissecans (sometimes spelt dessecans, and abbreviated OCD).
Osteoarthritis is the most common form of arthritis. It is a degenerative joint disease that involves thinning or destruction of the smooth cartilage that covers the ends of bones, as well as changes to the bone underlying the joint cartilage. Osteoporosis is a bone disease in which the amount and quality of the bone is reduced, leading to fractures (broken bones). 2  Osteoporosis produces no pain or other symptoms unless a fracture has occurred.
