Osteoporosis:
Weak Bones
Hurt Us All

Beyond the Pain of Osteoporosis:

Weak Bones Hurt Us All In Many Ways.

• "Broken bones due to osteoporosis are very painful at any age. Each year 1.5 million older people in this country suffer fractures because their bones have become weak. For older people, weak bones can be deadly."
• "If you are elderly, a broken hip makes you up to four times more likely to die within three months."
• "If you survive, the injury often causes your health to spiral downward. One in five people with a hip fracture ends up in a nursing home within a year."
• "Many others become isolated, depressed, or frightened to leave home because they fear they will fall."
• "The cost of weak bones to Americans, their families, and our country is huge. The medical expense for treating broken bones from osteoporosis is as high as $18 billion each year."
• "The cost of care for these patients and the work that is lost adds billions more."
• "$18 billion is a stack of dollar bills 1,119 miles high, or farther than the distance from New York to St. Louis, Missouri."
• "One in five people with a hip fracture ends up in a nursing home within a year."
