Ahead of World Osteoporosis Day on 20 October, the Royal Osteoporosis Society (ROS) is urging the public to treat bone health with the same care as heart health and to take its free three-minute Great British Bone Check, an online tool that helps people identify their osteoporosis risk factors — including menopause, previous fractures and family history — and understand the next steps to take.
The article published by the Mirror in partnership with the ROS, shares the stories of Jill and Karen, whose experiences of osteopenia and of nine osteoporotic spinal fractures illustrate why early identification and support matter.
