Fracture prevention involves strategies to reduce the risk of bone fractures, especially in vulnerable populations like the elderly. Key methods include maintaining a balanced diet rich in calcium and vitamin D, engaging in regular weight-bearing exercises, and ensuring a safe living environment to prevent falls. Regular health check-ups can also help identify conditions that weaken bones, such as osteoporosis. Medications may be prescribed to strengthen bones, and lifestyle changes, like quitting smoking and limiting alcohol, can further enhance bone health. Awareness and education about fall risks are essential components of effective fracture prevention.
