Joint Health

Osteoporosis is one of the most common non-communicable diseases in the world. Osteoporosis means that bone density becomes low, and bones become weaker, which increases the risk of bone fractures. According to the Hong Kong Orthopedic Association, among the elderly over 65 years old, women have a 50% chance of bone fracture due to osteoporosis, while men have a 20% chance.

Joint pain sounds like a common symptom, but it is also a disease with a high incidence of chronic diseases worldwide. As long as there are factors that cause joint pain and affect the normal functioning state, it is called joint pain, so it does not necessarily occur in the elderly.
