Find a DoctorOsteoporosis Explained: The Silent Bone Disease
Oct 23, 2025
Dr Sujoy Bhattacharjee, Chairman – Robotic Joint Replacement at Max Super Speciality Hospital, Saket, explains osteoporosis, often referred to as the “silent bone disease.” Many patients only find out they have it when they attend for joint surgery, as it frequently shows no symptoms in the early stages. Osteoporosis can develop at a young age, increasing the likelihood of fractures even from minor injuries. Early detection through a DEXA scan, which measures bone mineral density, is crucial. Maintaining a calcium-rich diet, avoiding smoking, alcohol, and junk food, and participating in weight-bearing exercises can help prevent complications. With timely intervention and lifestyle modifications, osteoporosis is largely preventable.
