    GlossaryChronic Recurrent Multifocal Osteomyelitis

    rare, non-infectious bone inflammation causing recurring pain in multiple sites

    Chronic Recurrent Multifocal Osteomyelitis (CRMO) is a rare, autoinflammatory bone disorder characterized by recurrent episodes of bone pain and inflammation in multiple locations throughout the body. Unlike typical osteomyelitis, CRMO is not caused by an infection but rather by an abnormal immune response, and it often requires long-term management with anti-inflammatory medications.
