OSTEOPOROSIS: Symptoms, Diagnoses and Treatment

When a bone breaks partially or completely then it causes a bone fracture.

The most common fractures (injuries) in people with osteoporosis include wrist fractures, hip fractures, and a spinal fracture.

It mainly affects older women (after menopause due to hormonal changes).

Osteoporosis is also called a silent disease because it occurs without any symptoms in the early stages of bone loss but, once bones become weaker then it shows some signs which include:

Severe back pain or neck pain

Stooped posture (head and shoulders bent forwards)
