How to treat senile osteoporosis?

① Dietotherapy: The key to dietotherapy is to arrange the diet structure reasonably. The elderly should eat more foods containing calcium, phosphorus, vitamins and protein to make up for the deficiency of substances related to bone metabolism in the body. Dietotherapy depends on long-term reasonable adjustment of diet and persistence. Overeating in a short time is not only harmful to the body, but also harmful.

② Drug therapy: Drugs can be used to regulate the metabolic abnormality of elderly patients with osteoporosis. For example, elderly patients with osteoporosis, bone calcium loss and partial vitamin deficiency, can take a certain amount of calcium and vitamin preparations to supplement the deficiencies in the body.

③ Hormone therapy: Strictly speaking, hormone therapy also belongs to drug therapy, but it has its particularity. The hormones used to treat senile osteoporosis are different from the commonly used steroid hormones, but sex hormones (such as androgen and estrogen). Sex hormones can stimulate bone formation, reduce bone decomposition and achieve the purpose of treating osteoporosis. Sex hormone therapy is more important and effective for postmenopausal osteoporosis in women.

④ Physiotherapy: referred to as physiotherapy for short. Physiotherapy is to adjust the metabolic state of the whole body through physical activities, improve the blood circulation of bones, and increase the stimulation of external forces on bone channels, thus alleviating osteoporosis.

⑤ Physiotherapy: Physiotherapy, referred to as physiotherapy, applies modern physiotherapy instruments such as electricity, light and sound to human body and bone canal to promote the synthesis of bone canal. It mainly includes ultrasound, ultrashort wave, magnetic therapy, hyperthermia and so on.

⑥ Acupuncture treatment with Chinese characteristics: Hook operation is safe, painless and can be treated for many times, which is the first choice for osteoporosis treatment.

(7) Psychotherapy: Psychotherapy has been neglected for a long time. In recent years, people have increasingly realized that the severity of symptoms of various diseases (including osteoporosis) is closely related to people's psychological state. People who are broad-minded, happy and open-minded often have mild symptoms and better treatment effects; People who are narrow-minded, eccentric and depressed often have serious symptoms and poor treatment results. Therefore, more and more attention has been paid to the adjustment of psychological state.
