    Patients Concern

    Disease/Condition Glossary

    Osteoporosis: It is a bone disease that weakens and brittle bones by decreasing bone density. As the density of bones decreases, they weaken and are more likely to break. Breaking a bone is a severe complication of osteoporosis, especially in older patients. Women are much more likely to develop osteoporosis than men. 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.

    Osteomalacia/Rickets: Rickets is a bone disease caused by softening and weakening bones in children due to inadequate vitamin D. Adults can experience a similar condition known as osteomalacia. It causes bone pain, poor growth, and soft, weak bones that can lead to bone deformities.

    Hypoparathyroidism: It is a disease characterized by low levels of parathyroid hormone. This can cause low calcium levels and trigger tetany.

    Tetany: A disease condition due to low levels of calcium (hypocalcemia) in the body which causes cramps and spasms in the hands, feet, and larynx (voice box).
