It is well known that as we age, calcium in the body will gradually be lost in large quantities. Therefore, for many middle-aged and elderly people, the phenomenon of osteoporosis often occurs as a result.
Generally speaking, the bones of patients with osteoporosis will become relatively fragile. The thinning of the bones will make the patients' bones more susceptible to injury, especially during exercise.
Doctors remind: Osteoporosis patients often encounter these three major risks when exercising. It is best to be vigilant and take relevant protective measures in advance to avoid physical damage.
1. Fracture risk
For people with osteoporosis, if they do not pay attention during exercise, it is very likely that our bones will be damaged and there will be a risk of fractures.
People with osteoporosis may have their bones become more fragile due to a decrease in bone density. When these bones are subjected to external forces, they are more likely to be damaged, leading to osteoporosis. Cracked or fracture.
Therefore, people with osteoporosis must take relevant protective measures when exercising to avoid causing fractures and other symptoms that are harmful to the body and endanger the health of the body.
2. Decrease in physical condition
If patients with osteoporosis do not pay attention when exercising, not only will it easily lead to serious situations such as fractures, but it may also affect the physical condition, leading to a decline in physical fitness.
This is mainly because for people with osteoporosis, if they choose relatively strenuous aerobic exercise for a long time, it will not only cause damage to the bones, but also cause serious damage to our knee joints.
Not only that, this kind of high-intensity and high-load exercise may not only not enhance the physical fitness of patients with osteoporosis, but may also cause damage to multiple joints in the body, thus affecting the physical condition of the human body. have declined.
3. Affects nutrient absorption
Under normal circumstances, appropriate exercise can promote the absorption and digestion of nutrients in our body. For patients with osteoporosis, moderate exercise also has this effect.
However, if you do not pay attention during exercise and increase the intensity and difficulty of exercise, it will increase the burden on the body and affect the absorption and digestion of nutrients in the body.
Not only that, if this situation is not improved, the patient's ability to absorb and digest nutrients will become worse and worse, and in severe cases, it may even aggravate the symptoms of osteoporosis.
Especially for many older women, this phenomenon may be more common. Therefore, for people with osteoporosis, exercise must be moderate and not excessive, otherwise it will affect the body's absorption of nutrients.
Although exercise can help us strengthen our physique and promote the body's metabolic cycle, people with osteoporosis must take relevant protective measures during exercise to avoid the above three major risks during exercise. endanger the health of the body.
