Osteoporosis is a condition that causes your bones to become thin and fragile, resulting in an increased risk of fractures. Early detection and treatment is important because once a broken bone has occurred, you are more likely to have several more. Women, especially those past menopause or advanced age, are at greatest risk. Other risk factors include a low intake of calcium-rich foods, a history of previous fractures, and a family history of osteoporosis.
A simple test can help identify osteoporosis. ORA Orthopedics’ Osteoporosis Centers in Moline and Davenport offer bone density tests. The test is painless, safe, and requires no preparation.
For a bone density evaluation, call (563) 459-4044 for an appointment.
