Osteoporosis

Osteoporosis is a bone disease that increases and individual’s risk of sustaining a fracture. This disease occurs when the body fails to form the right amount of new bone, causing bones to become thin or lose their density. Bone development is affected by different factors including the body’s absorption of certain minerals and hormone levels.

Symptoms

  • Pain or tenderness in the bones
  • Fractures without a significant traumatic event
  • Decreasing height over time
  • Neck or lower back pain
  • Stooped posture
