• What disorder did you choose to write about?
• Which part of the axial skeleton does this disorder affect?
• What are the symptoms of this disorder?
• What are the long term effects of this disorder?
• Describe some of the current treatments available for this disorder. Which treatment would you choose and why?
• Is there any research for new potential treatment options? Explain.
