Best Answer

Mushy bone marrow is caused by Osteomyelitis, which is an inflammation of the bone marrow and surrounding bone. The bone marrow swells and presses against the bone's blood vessels when a bone gets infected, causing parts of the bone to die and the infection to spread to surrounding muscles and other soft tissues.
