Osteoporotic women is more terrible than the cancer

Do secretarial Jun green suddenly discovered, I do not know since when, I began to hump up; and at a young age often feel back pain, knee numb; more frightening is that a kick down the sneezing, she actually fractured . In fact, both the hump or lumbar acid, have issued a warning --- osteoporosis.

October 20 is World Osteoporosis Day, the theme of "Straighten your spine, to protect bone health." There are reports: Over the past 30 years, our patients with osteoporosis increased by 300%. Among these, young people, especially young women account for a large proportion. The International Osteoporosis Society (IOF) researchers --- is predicted by 2050, one in three women, one will suffer from osteoporosis.

Women loose bone more dangerous than breast cancer

"We are concerned about breast cancer, heart disease, but women in fact a higher prevalence of fractures, if the common hip, pyramidal, the incidence of wrist fractures combined, the resulting fracture incidence, degree than the above concern The disease is more common high-more common. "spoke of female bone problems, Alexander Hou Yong, an associate professor of orthopedics Qilu Hospital, said.

Yesterday, the hospital came out about more than 20 patients, of which 2 / 3 are women, most of them saying their back pain.

Jun-Young is one of them. The day before yesterday, when she went downstairs to buy food, sneezed and suddenly heard the bone "click," a sound, and feel some lower back pain. She thought, was not any wrestling, it should be no harm, still reluctantly to buy food. The results, yesterday she got a bad feeling back pain, could no longer walk up. Yesterday we took some pictures and was diagnosed as compression fractures. She was very surprised, just sneeze can fracture it?

"This case is not unusual," said Hou Yong, and some women even as a cantilever when the sun moves quilt, or just get on and off from the bus, can lead to fractures, pain could not sleep. Compression fractures caused by osteoporosis is a major reason.

Weight loss for 30 years old, white-collar bone

Hou Yong introduced the young majority of osteoporosis patients are women, partly because the reasons for women's unique physiology, on the other hand, because many women develop the pursuit of beauty is not conducive to a healthy lifestyle.

Hou Yong, a case of the deepest impression is one office chair and tripped over the white-collar was broken. After examination, blind to the weight loss of bone density over 20-year-old girl has been the equivalent of more than 50 years of age bone density.

He said that rapid weight loss can affect bone density, reduce fat in the same time, bone mass will be reduced. Adipose tissue through the biochemical effects of estrogen into such increases intestinal absorption of calcium and promote bone formation and prevent osteoporosis. So people who are too thin are more likely to osteoporosis and fractures.

Today white-collar workers are also popular to drink vinegar to lose weight, which can lead to reduced bone mineral density.

Does not lead to bone deterioration squatting laundry

In fact, as a common disease, the factors leading to osteoporosis are varied, such as disease, low calcium intake, the influence of drugs and sunlight, and family history. For young people, "mess" on the problems, relations with the way of life.

"Ten years ago travel was mainly bicycles, walking, now out of all cars. Ten years ago, squatting toilet toilet is now basically toilet. Often in women squatting Laundry Amoy food, and now many home do not have to do yourself. "Hou Yong said that these changes are related to an increase in fractures. They had compared, squat and strong, plays a significant role in reducing fractures.

Also some young people work pressure, commonly used to smoke, drink coffee, drink tea refreshing way, over time can lead to osteoporosis.

Hide the sun for the white hinder calcium absorption

"Urban women have a very good habit is to avoid the sun, fair complexion and everywhere. You know, want of food in the calcium absorbed by the body, and ultimately, the involvement of vitamin D, and vitamin D sources are mainly sunlight. "Orthopaedic Hospital, director of Shandong Province, said Li Xiaoguang, a thick barrier of the UV sunscreen at the same time, also makes the calcium they eat waste.

Meanwhile, the pregnant women the risk of osteoporosis is 30% -40%. Because the mothers body a considerable portion of the existing calcium to "drain" to the baby body, to promote his growth. There is a saying called "10 mothers 10 had calcium deficiency" that is the truth.

Li Xiaoguang suggested that if the body itself too thin, without regular exercise, sun for long periods of sunlight, sleep, or non-motion state, often with hand cramps, lower back and knee pain and other symptoms often best to hospital bone density.

30 years ago to save for future bone mass more than

Li Xiaoguang remind young women should be even more balanced diet, adequate exercise and sun, more than 30 years ago, "save" some bone mass.

Osteoporosis did not sound good name "silent epidemic" because it as a hidden disease, there is less than 60% of pain symptoms. Many young patients at the medical examination or treatment because of other diseases when found.

A large number of studies have shown that weight-bearing exercise is most effective for strong bones, hiking, climbing stairs, jumping rope, basketball, volleyball, etc. are good weight-bearing exercise.

The other is the dietary intake. Li Xiaoguang out the list were, are easy to buy food --- dairy products, green leafy vegetables, fish, cheese, wheat, soybean flour, almonds, dried figs, leafy green vegetables, hazelnut, ice cream, milk, yogurt , soybean powder.

Phosphorus rich foods: cocoa powder, fish meal, peanut meal, soybean meal, poultry, pumpkin seeds, beef, cheese, fish, seafood, lamb, liver, nuts, peanut butter, pork, whole grain flour.
