Hi Wanda,
sorry to hear about that fall.hope you are better now.
osseous demineralization occurs as age advances.Also I'm sad to say,,, it is more for ladies...especially post menopause...or quite in and around menopausal age...due to lowering levels of oestrogen..
but nothing too much to worry
you just have to take calcium and vitD tabs which will prevent further absorption of calcium from your bones...it is quite common after 50 yrs of age..
so just be careful and avoid such falls. ..then you can run along fine...
hope this answer was useful to you ...thank you
