Osteoporosis is a condition of low bone density that can progress silently over a long period of time. Osteoporosis has no symptoms until a fracture occurs‚ which causes bone pain‚ height loss‚ and abnormal spine curvature. If a fracture is determined to be due to osteoporosis‚ it is considered a pathological fracture‚ which is a break of a diseased or weakened bone without any identifiable trauma or following a minor injury that would not ordinarily break a healthy bone (Manolagas). If diagnosed early

Calcium is necessary for bone and teeth formation‚ and also muscle contraction (Herlihy‚ 2009). Calcium and phosphate interact to create dense bone material. Both electrolytes should be in balance‚ and the calculated balance proportion of both electrolytes of calcium to phosphates is 2-1‚ which proportion makes human bones healthy strong and strength (National

Scoliosis :Homeostatic Imbalance The spine is composed of bones called the vertebrae. The vertebrae purpose is to work with fibers to sort the spinal cord. The vertebrae are classified by main regions called the cervical‚ thoracic‚ lumbar‚ sacrum and coccyx. When there is an unusual disease affecting the spine by making an arch it is called scoliosis. Scoliosis is mainly now for its shaped S or C in the spinal column. Its twist and rotation‚have cause deformation in different parts of the section
