Best Answer

The most common bone infection is called Osteomyelitis. In Children, Osteomyelitis affects the long bones, while in adults, the spine bones, hips, and feet are mostly affected. Infections of the bone are not that very common, but people that have had their spleen removed are at a greater risk.
