Signs and symptoms include back pain caused by a fractured or collapsed vertebra, loss of height over time, a stooped posture, a bone that breaks much more easily than expected.
Tetany: A disease condition due to low levels of calcium (hypocalcaemia) in the body which causes cramps and spasms in the hands, feet, and larynx (voice box).
