What Is Osteoporosis and How Does It Affect the Spine?

Osteoporosis is a common but often misunderstood condition that weakens bones, making them more fragile and more likely to fracture, especially in people diagnosed with osteoporosis later in life. The word “osteoporosis” literally means “porous bone.” As bone density decreases, bones lose strength and structure, increasing the risk of breaks, even from minor falls or everyday activities. While osteoporosis can affect any bone in the body, it has a particularly serious impact on the spine.
