Although primary osteoporosis associated with ageing is impossible to cure completely, its progression can be significantly delayed and slowed down. This will contribute to a secure old age and a comfortable life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Osteoporosis is one of the frequently occurring bone diseases.<\/a> It is characterised by a progressive loss of bone mass and a reduction in the quality of bone tissue. It mainly affects postmenopausal women and is usually asymptomatic until a fracture occurs. Osteoporosis is a disease that leads to a \"fissuring\" of the bone, whereby the bone looks like a sieve. Its spatial structure is weakened and susceptibility to fracture increases. Without previous examinations to measure bone density, the presence of osteoporosis is usually discovered when a fracture occurs. They are most often related to the spine and the long bones, i.e. the forearm and the neck of the femur, but they also appear in other places.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first symptoms of osteoporosis are pain in the limbs of the long bones, pain in the spine, the appearance of excessive thoracic kyphosis, reduced height and the occurrence of the first fractures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not everyone is aware that osteoporosis is responsible for a significant percentage of deaths. Their cause is the complications that accompany it. This is because the bone affected by osteoporosis has considerable problems with fusion, hence the period of immobilisation of the patient due to fractures is usually very long. They then occur:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
