In simple words: Skeletal fluorosis of the thigh is a condition where the thigh bone becomes too hard because of having too much fluoride in your body for a long time. This can happen from drinking water with too much fluoride or from breathing in fluoride dust or fumes at work.

Skeletal fluorosis of the thigh is a condition characterized by excessive hardening of the thigh bone due to prolonged exposure to high levels of fluoride.

Example 1: A 50-year-old individual living in a region with high fluoride levels in the drinking water presents with increasing pain and stiffness in the thigh. Imaging studies reveal increased bone density and early signs of skeletal fluorosis., A factory worker exposed to fluoride dust over many years develops skeletal fluorosis in the thigh, experiencing limited mobility and pain., A patient with a history of excessive fluoride intake presents with a fracture in the thigh bone. The fracture is attributed to the brittle bones caused by skeletal fluorosis.

Documentation should include evidence of excessive fluoride exposure (e.g., high fluoride levels in drinking water, occupational exposure), physical examination findings (e.g., pain, stiffness, limited mobility), and imaging results confirming the diagnosis of skeletal fluorosis.
