  2. Meaning and Symptoms Download App Meaning : A disease that damages the bones is osteoporosis. "Its name derives from the Latin for "porous bones." There are narrow gaps within a stable bone, like a honeycomb. The size of these spaces is increased by osteoporosis, which allows the bone to lose strength and density. The exterior of the bone, however, becomes softer and thinner. People with osteoporosis, when performing regular tasks such as standing or walking, are at a high risk of fractures or bone breaks. Ribs, elbows, and the bones in the wrists and back are the most frequently affected bones. Symptoms : Osteoporosis doesn't have any symptoms sometimes. When you crack a bone in a comparatively mild fall or injury, the first indication that you will have it is (known as a low-impact fracture). In the hip, spine, or elbow, fractures are most probable. www.meddco.com

  4. Causes and Treatment Download App Causes : Poor diet – If your diet does not contain enough calcium or vitamin D, or if you are underweight, you are at increased risk for osteoporosis. Smoking—Tobacco is directly toxic to bones. It decreases the estrogen level in women and can induce early menopause. Smoking decreases testosterone activity in males, and this can also damage bones. Drinking – Drinking a lot of alcohol limits the body's capacity to make bones. It also raises the probability that the bone will crack as a result of a fall. Family history – Osteoporosis happens in families, possibly because there are genetic causes that influence bone growth. If a close member has sustained a fracture due to osteoporosis, so your own risk of fracture is likely to be higher than average. Treatment : If the examination indicates that you have osteoporosis, the doctor will consult with you to establish a recovery plan. Your doctor would also recommend drugs as well as dietary changes. These lifestyle improvements can include increasing the consumption of calcium and vitamin D, as well as having proper exercise. There is no cure for osteoporosis, but adequate care will help preserve and reinforce the bones. These treatments can help slow bone loss in your body, and some of the treatments can promote the development of new bones. www.meddco.com
