Musculoskeletal
- Hip Pain
There may be problems with the hip joints, leading to hip pain, stiffness and problems with walking. This may eventually cause arthritis in your hip joints. You may have joints which are slack and more flexible than usual. [patient.info]
Skin
- Blister
A rash with blisters and lesions on the skin and mucus membranes develops, which damages the eyes and causes the top layer of the skin to separate and die. [tsbvi.edu]

There are two main types of clinical studies: Clinical trials determine if a new test or treatment for a disease is effective and safe by comparing groups receiving different tests/treatments. [rarediseases.info.nih.gov]
Treatment uses diet and therapy to optimize bone mass and muscle strength. Orthopedic care is a pillar of treatment for these patients providing fracture care and treatment for scoliosis which is common for OI. [bertsbigadventure.org]
