Abstract: (298 Views)
20 October every year is named "World Osteoporosis Day". Osteoporosis is the most common metabolic bone disease. This disease is asymptomatic. Diagnosis and screening of this disease is very important, especially in postmenopausal women. If it not diagnosed and treated on time, these patients will suffer from fractures. Fractures in hip or multiple vertebrae, the patients become bedridden and occur the significant complications including immobility, and complications related to immobility such as Deep Vein Thrombosis, stroke, heart attack, bedsores. One of the most important effective factors in the treatment and prevention of osteoporosis, which plays an important role in preventing falls in the elderly, is vitamin D. In this article, we discuss the importance and how to use vitamin D.
