Aging can bring wonderful experiences, but it also raises the chances of bone and joint discomfort. Fortunately, many problems can be managed—or even prevented—with simple lifestyle choices.
1. Osteoarthritis
Knees, hips, and hands often bear the brunt of cartilage wear. Tip: Keep your weight in check, stay active with low-impact workouts (like cycling or swimming), and schedule regular exams. If advanced arthritis is a concern, consider our Joint Replacement options.
2. Osteoporosis
Bones weaken and fracture more easily. Tip: Ensure adequate calcium and vitamin D intake. Weight-bearing exercises (walking or light resistance training) help maintain bone density. If you need guidance, visit our Elderly Orthopedic Care page.
3. Rotator Cuff Trouble
Shoulder tendon inflammation or tears can cause pain and limited motion. Tip: Gentle shoulder exercises and avoiding heavy overhead lifting can help. For more details, read about our Shoulder Arthroscopy services.
4. Spinal Discomfort
Conditions like lumbar spondylosis or disc problems may lead to chronic back pain. Tip: Prioritize good posture and build core strength. If conservative measures fail, consider an evaluation under our Orthopedic OPD.
5. Knee & Hip Degeneration
Joints can stiffen or wear out over time. Tip: Low-impact aerobic activity helps preserve function. If severe damage occurs, arthroscopy or joint replacement might be beneficial.
