Osteoporosis

A simple X-ray can not diagnose osteoporosis until it is very late. The test needed is a special test of bone called bone mineral density (BMD) scan which measures the density of spine, wrist and hip bones (the most common sites of fractures). These tests are painless, noninvasive and safe. Bone density tests can:

  Detect osteoporosis before a fracture occurs.
  Predict your chances of fracturing in the future.

Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is a disease of the synovial membrane. It is inflamed. The condition is persistent (chronic).

What is arthritis?

Many people use the word "arthritis" without knowing the meaning. Arthritis is really not a single disease. There are over 100 different kinds of arthritis, all of which affect one or more joints in the body. The word arthritis comes from two Greek words, arth meaning "joint" and it is, meaning "inflammation". Thus arthritis is "inflammation of a joint", which is somewhat misleading because in many kinds of arthritis the joint is not inflamed or swollen. The pain however may be nagging. Or at its worst, it can be physically and mentally crippling.
