Osteoporosis

Osteoporosis

Welcome to Shankara Ortho Clinic, a leading orthopedic center specializing in the diagnosis, management, and treatment of osteoporosis. Our clinic is dedicated to providing exceptional care to patients with osteoporosis, helping them improve their bone health, prevent fractures, and maintain an active and independent lifestyle. Our experienced team of orthopedic specialists offers comprehensive treatment options tailored to address the unique needs of individuals with osteoporosis.

Osteoporosis is a common bone disease characterized by low bone density and deterioration of bone tissue, leading to an increased risk of fractures. It often occurs in older adults, particularly women after menopause, but can also affect men and younger individuals. Osteoporosis is often referred to as a “silent disease” because it progresses without noticeable symptoms until a fracture occurs. At Shankara Ortho Clinic, we understand the importance of early detection and proactive management of osteoporosis to prevent fractures and maintain optimal bone health.

Our Approach:

At Shankara Ortho Clinic, we take a comprehensive and personalized approach to the management of osteoporosis. Our team of orthopedic specialists, along with other healthcare professionals, works collaboratively to accurately diagnose osteoporosis, assess fracture risk, and develop an individualized treatment plan. Our goal is to prevent further bone loss, reduce the risk of fractures, and help you maintain strong and healthy bones.

Services Offered:
  1. Diagnostic Evaluation: Our orthopedic specialists will perform a thorough evaluation, including a detailed medical history review, physical examination, and diagnostic tests such as bone density scans (DEXA scans) to assess the strength and density of your bones. This evaluation allows us to accurately diagnose osteoporosis and determine your fracture risk.

  2. Lifestyle Modifications: Our team will provide guidance on lifestyle modifications to help improve your bone health and reduce the risk of fractures. This may include recommendations for a balanced diet rich in calcium and vitamin D, regular weight-bearing exercises, smoking cessation, moderation of alcohol consumption, and fall prevention strategies.

  3. Medications: Depending on your individual needs and fracture risk, our specialists may recommend medication therapies to manage osteoporosis. These medications may include bisphosphonates, hormone replacement therapy, denosumab, or selective estrogen receptor modulators. Our team will carefully assess your medical history, overall health, and potential side effects to determine the most appropriate medication regimen for you.

  4. Fall Prevention Strategies: Falls are a common cause of fractures in individuals with osteoporosis. Our team will provide guidance on fall prevention strategies, including home modifications, assistive devices, and balance exercises, to reduce the risk of falls and subsequent fractures.

  5. Rehabilitation and Follow-up Care: If you have experienced fractures or are at high risk of fractures, our team will provide comprehensive rehabilitation programs to aid in your recovery and improve your strength, balance, and mobility. We will closely monitor your progress during follow-up appointments, adjust your treatment plan as needed, and provide ongoing support and education to empower you in managing your osteoporosis.

I was a bit nervous at first, regarding my arthritis but then I found out that I was tensed more than what it was necessary, the doctor here is so patient and explains what exactly is the issue instead simply giving the chit, which I found amazing. Definitely recommend this hospital. 😇
