As you grow older, your risks of falling increase. Often, these falls will result in fractures which are extremely painful. The cause is often the result of weak and brittle bones, a condition known as osteoporosis.

Gender: Women are at a higher risk, especially after menopause, due to lower estrogen levels, which protect bone density. Men, however, are still at risk, especially after the age of 70. Diet: A diet low in calcium and vitamin D can contribute to weak bones. For those who experience a fracture, or suspect osteoporosis the orthopaedic surgeons at Life The Glynnwood understand the pain and complications as a result. The professional team, of surgeons, nurses and physiotherapists are there to help you restore mobility.

Avoid Smoking and Limit Alcohol: Smoking and excessive alcohol can accelerate bone loss. Quitting smoking and reducing alcohol intake can significantly improve your bone health.
