Hello,

It looks from your details that your mother may be suffering from osteoporosis.You should do following to have relief to her-

-Start a calcium and vitamin D preparation.
-Give her a mild analgesic like ibuprofen for 2-3 times day for 3-5 days.
-Advise her to take milk and milk products like cheese,yogurt,curd,etc.
-Weight bearing exercises like brisk walking will be helpful.
-Consult to your doctor and get her evaluated for vitamin D and x ray of spine.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
