Here are some more tips to help reduce the risk of bone fractures:
- Protective Gear During Sports: Use appropriate safety equipment such as helmets, pads, and guards while engaging in sports or physical activities that pose a risk of falls or impacts.
- Prevent Falls: Especially in older adults, measures like removing home hazards, using non-slip mats, and ensuring good lighting can significantly reduce fall risks.
- Bone Density Tests: Regular screening, particularly for those at higher risk, can detect weak bones early, allowing for preventive measures.
