"Joint & Bone Care – From Early Pains to Osteoporosis"
1. Joint Pains at a Young Age
Joint pain is no longer just a problem of old age—today, even young people experience stiffness, swelling, and discomfort in joints. Poor posture, long sitting hours, lack of exercise, unhealthy diet, or sports injuries are some of the common causes that affect bone and joint health early in life.
2. Age-Related Bone & Joint Issues
As people grow older, natural wear and tear in joints leads to common problems like arthritis, reduced flexibility, back pain, and knee stiffness. These age-related issues affect mobility and quality of life, making preventive care and healthy lifestyle choices extremely important.
3. Osteopenia & Osteoporosis Risks
Weakening of bones, first seen as osteopenia, can progress to osteoporosis if left untreated. In osteoporosis, bone mass density (BMD) decreases, increasing the risk of fractures. While it is more common in women above 50, today even men and younger individuals are at risk due to lifestyle factors. The most commonly affected bones are the spine, hips, and wrists.
