News just in from our client, Dr. Matthew D. Hepler: Osteoporosis – Definition, Causes, Treatment Options

Osteoporosis is a common condition, with more than 75 million people worldwide being affected each year. According to the International Osteoporosis Foundation, this bone disease causes 8.9 million fractures annually1. Because it is usually associated with hip fractures among men and woman over the age of 60, it cannot be taken lightly; osteoporosis and its repercussions play a significant part of mortality among elderly people. How? The statistics show that overall mortality reaches nearly 20% in the first 12 months after a hip fracture and is higher in men than women2. Although the fracture itself isn’t usually deadly, the repercussions (such as limited mobility, loss of normal functioning, etc.) can lead to other serious conditions. What is osteoporosis? What are some of the risk factors? How is it treated?  We will answer those and many more questions below in this detailed article on: Osteoporosis – Definition, Causes, Treatment Options.
