About this document

Understanding Osteoporosis Symptoms by everydayisagift9999 is a document available to read on EtoBox.

Osteoporosis is a common bone disease that causes bones to become weak and brittle, increasing the risk of fractures. It often causes no symptoms until a fracture occurs. Typical signs of osteoporotic fractures include localized pain that is worsened by movement, muscle spasms, and loss of height and abnormal curvatures of the spine. Physical examination may reveal tenderness, limited range of motion, and deformities at fracture sites.
