October 20: World Osteoporosis Day!
Osteoporosis is a disease that gradually weakens bones and potentially lead to fractures. Individuals affected with SMA are considered at risk of osteopenia, osteoporosis and fractures.
Bone & joint care is an essential part of health care in children of developing age.Healthy bones need adequate calcium, vitamin D, and exercise which are compromised in children with physical disabilities resulting in low bone mineral density (BMD) and high risk of osteoporosis.
