Osteoporosis Management
Osteoporosis is a condition characterized by weakened bones that are more prone to fractures, often affecting the spine, hip, and wrist. Early detection and management are crucial to prevent fractures and maintain mobility and quality of life.
Management of osteoporosis involves a comprehensive approach, including bone density assessment, lifestyle modifications, medications, and preventive strategies to strengthen bones and reduce the risk of fractures.
