Osteoporosis without pathological fracture - what does this mean
Osteoporosis is a disease in which bones become weak and brittle due to a decrease in bone mass and density. it can occur without a pathological fracture, but can still lead to an increased risk of fracture due to weakened bones. other symptoms of osteoporosis may include pain, stiffness, and a decrease in height.
What happens during the disease - osteoporosis without pathological fracture
Osteoporosis is a condition in which the bones become weak and brittle due to a decrease in bone density. this decrease in bone density is caused by a decrease in the production of new bone, an increase in the breakdown of existing bone, or a combination of both. this can lead to an increased risk of fractures, particularly in the spine, hips, and wrists.
