Osteoporosis is a bone disease that reduces the density and quality of bone tissue. The skeleton of the patient with osteoporosis becomes susceptible to fractures, which can occur even with the smallest injuries or during the smallest loads on the bones, during any movement or inappropriate support, and can even be caused by the pressure caused by the weight itself body of the patient on the bones. This is the reason why osteoporosis has been called the "silent thief" or "silent killer" of bone tissue. According to Dr. Neda Trajkovska, surgeon-traumatologist, the treatment is long, while the consequences are serious. Timely detection of the disease and its appropriate treatment is extremely important for the further life and normal functioning of the patient. Proper treatment should reduce disability and restore the patient to fitness.
Diagnosis of fractures A large number of St. Pierre and Miquelon Email List patients do not manage to distinguish fractures until the moment of carrying out examinations for the diagnosis of their condition. A large percentage of these cases are associated with pain and damage or loss of function. Fractures usually occur in the wrist, in the ankle, in the vertebrae of the spine, rarely in the lower limbs. For the diagnosis of a bone fracture, it is necessary to carry out a clinical examination in the area where the patient complains of pain, then an X-ray and, if necessary, a computer tomography or magnetic resonance. Your doctor will analyze the photograph to determine or confirm the severity of the fracture. Pain can be reduced with pain medication, while reduction in immobility can be achieved through physical therapy.
Surgical treatment The treatment of fractures in the lower part of the limbs is extremely important since their proper treatment means verticalization and rehabilitation in time, which results in the return of performing daily activities. These types of fractures are solved by operative treatment, by fixing it with a special osteosynthetic material or by placing an endoprosthesis. Timely diagnosis in these patients is the basic key to rapid rehabilitation and return to daily activities, as well as in terms of avoiding possible complications. Although by no means unimportant, upper extremity fractures are not always treated operatively. Conservative treatment and immobilization of long bone fractures without major displacement give good results, especially in patients with generally poor health. This does not apply to intra-articular fractures (those involving the joints) where ideal restoration and the possibility of early initiation of the rehabilitation process are important, which is achieved through operative treatment.
