Did You Know?

Osteoporosis is the most common chronic bone disease which predisposes an individual to an increased risk of fracture. Recognizing the importance of providing secondary preventive care to the post-fracture patients, Beacon Hospital has implemented Fracture Liaison Service (FLS) programme which involves a bone evaluation being performed and a personalized plan being developed for an individual to maintain his or her bone health and to prevent future fractures.

How to Prevent Bone & Joint Disease?

Bone & joint disease can be known as osteoarthritis (OA), it affects the bones and joints in our body. This disease occurs when the cartilage breaks down and causes swelling, pain, and mobility limitation.

The risk factors of bone & joint disease include:

Age
Gender
Biological inheritance

Lifestyle factors play a big part in developing the disease. Certain changes in lifestyle are able to prevent the disease:

Exercise – Exercise helps to maintain healthy joints, relieves muscle stiffness, strengthening bone and muscle, and reducing muscle fatigue and pain
Eat right – People with osteoarthritis are most likely to have high cholesterol. Consuming vitamin A, C, and E may help to prevent further damage to the joints
Maintain weight – Being overweight will put extra pressure on joints and excess fat will cause inflammation on joints. Maintaining a healthy weight can help to prevent the symptoms of osteoarthritis
Posture – Walking, sitting, kneeling, and lifting with the wrong posture may harm your joints
Rest – Overuse of joints from any physical activities may develop osteoarthritis, let your joints rest to reduce the risk of osteoarthritis
