Hip pain may occur when the pelvis and thigh bone are involved. Other frequent symptoms are the deformities of the bones such as increase in head size, bowing of the limb, or curvature of the spine has been seen in advanced cases. These deformities are usually due to enlargement and softening of the affected bone. Hearing loss and visual problems can also be experienced. Damage to the cartilage of joints adjacent to the affected bone may lead to arthritis.
Pagetic bone is susceptible to fracture with moderate stress.
Paget's disease is rarely a fatal disease. Another question that needs to be answered is the connection between Paget's and heart disease. Mainly it has been emphasized that this usually does not occur due to the fact that the blood produces more bone, the circulation becomes more rapid and the heart works harder. Enlargement of ventricles of the heart can be seen. The majority of heart disease is due to arteriosclerosis, hardening of the arteries and the arteries of the heart can be more susceptible in the Paget's patient than a normal patient.
