Good evening, folks. My friend has been hospitalized since she had discus fracture. However, this is not her only problem. She was also diagnosed with kifosis. Are these two entities related in any way? I would really appreciate your replies. My friend is in her late 50s. Bye and thanks for your help!

Hi, there. Since your friend is in her late 50s, I would say that she may have osteoporosis. Osteoporosis is often associated with kyphosis. In fact, people with osteoporosis have an increased risk factor for kyphosis. When she gets out of the hospital, she should make some tests for osteoporosis as well. If this is true, then she should start with the treatment on time. You can consult her doctor for more details. I am sorry I cannot tell you more. Good luck to her! Bye!

Hi, guys. It is interesting that your friend has disc fracture. It can be that the disc is weakened by osteoporotic process. When the bone is altered in this way, it is easier to fracture. In other words, it is a result of osteoporotic compression. I agree that your friend should test herself for osteoporosis. If she really has it, she should start with her treatment on time. I hope this will help you. Please, let me know what your friend finds out. Bye!
