Osteoporosis
Osteoporosis is a condition affecting your bones. It is characterized by your bones growing weaker and more susceptible to breakage or fractures. This happens when the loss of bone tissue occurs faster than your body’s ability to replace it with new bone tissue. Osteoporosis can be caused by several things including a change in your hormones, vitamin or calcium deficiencies, other medications, dietary choices, lifestyle choices, aging, and more. With the right treatment plan and medications, Osteoporosis can be managed and possibly even reversed. As with many conditions – early detection can yield better results. Call us today to learn more.
