Starting from 1998, the World Health Organization (WHO) officially designated the annual World Osteoporosis Day as1October 20th 10, aiming at popularizing osteoporosis-related knowledge to the public and preventing and reducing the occurrence of osteoporotic fractures.
According to statistics, anyone can suffer from osteoporosis, and the incidence of fractures caused by osteoporosis is 27.5%-32.6%. To this end, experts call on people to drink a glass of milk every day, bask in the sun for ten minutes, and insist on outdoor exercise, which can effectively prevent osteoporosis.
In the normal period of osteoporosis, you should eat more foods rich in calcium and vitamin D in your diet, develop the habit of outdoor exercise, develop a good lifestyle, do not smoke or drink, go to the hospital regularly for bone mineral density examination, and take drugs to prevent osteoporosis under the guidance of doctors.
Publicity on prevention of osteoporosis
Osteoporosis is a common and frequently-occurring disease among middle-aged and elderly people, ranking first among the five major diseases among them. Seriously endangering the health of the elderly has become one of the serious social problems that are widely concerned in the world today.
It is necessary to further strengthen the publicity and education of osteoporosis, so that the whole society can realize the universality and harm of osteoporosis, so that the majority of osteoporosis patients can be found and diagnosed early, so as to get timely treatment and minimize the harm of osteoporosis to middle-aged and elderly people.
Compared with no treatment, it is not too late to start treating osteoporosis at any stage, but early diagnosis and treatment will greatly benefit. High-risk groups should go to regular hospitals for osteoporosis detection, diagnosis and treatment as soon as possible.
