The Cancellous, or spongy bone is made of Trabeculae, which are thin rods or plates of bone that often run in the same direction as the stress applied to the bone. Stress on the bone may be in the form of gravity, or it may occur due to common force applied to the limb. Which can ultimately cause weakness in your bones.
