Disease/Condition Glossary

Osteoporosis: It is a bone disease that weakens bones and makes them brittle by decreasing bone density. As the density of bones decreases, they weaken and are more likely to break. Women are more likely to develop osteoporosis than men. Signs and symptoms include back pain caused by a fractured or collapsed vertebra, loss of height over time, a stooped posture, a bone that breaks much more easily than expected.

Osteomalacia/Rickets: Rickets is a bone disease caused by softening and weakening bones in children due to inadequate vitamin D. Adults can experience a similar condition known as osteomalacia. It causes bone pain, poor growth, and soft, weak bones that can lead to bone deformities.

Rheumatoid arthritis: It is an autoimmune and chronic inflammatory disorder in which the immune system attacks healthy cells by mistake, causing painful swelling in the affected parts of the body.
