Osteoporosis is often called a "silent disease" because it usually progresses without any symptoms until a bone fractures. Common signs include back pain, which can be caused by a fractured or collapsed vertebra. A loss of height over time and a stooped posture may also indicate osteoporosis. Fractures occur more easily, especially in the hip, wrist, or spine. Some people might experience bone pain or tenderness. If you notice these symptoms, it's important to see a doctor for a bone density test. Early detection can help manage and treat osteoporosis effectively, reducing the risk of fractures and maintaining a good quality of life.
