Mangalore: A person cannot see or feel their bones getting thinner. Many people do not even know that they have thin bones until a bone breaks (fractures). A broken bone can interfere with a person’s daily activities and can have serious consequences.
It is important for a person to know whether they have this silent disease so that they can take steps to prevent a fracture and protect their ability to lead an independent, active lifestyle.
A BMD test can Measure the density of bone, detect osteoporosis before a fracture occurs, help to predict the chances of fracture in the future, monitor the effectiveness of treatments for osteoporosis, etc.
For the benefit of the General public, a Free Bone Mineral Density Test camp (BMD Camp) is scheduled on 3 June 2024 (Monday) from 9:30 am to12.30 pm at Department of Orthopedics KMC Hospital, Attavar.
