Osteomalacia :
Osteomalacia is known as a condition in which the bones are softened and weakened, leading to fractures of bones more easily. Most commonly, osteomalacia will occur due to a deficiency of vitamin D. There will be other causes of osteomalacia, which include kidney failure, malabsorption, liver disease, and medications for seizures. The symptoms that are observed in osteomalacia can be muscle pain, easy fracture of bones, muscle stiffness, walking difficulty, paresthesia in arms and legs, and frequent falls. The diagnosis of osteomalacia will be based on the physical examination, blood tests, 24-hour urine test, bone biopsy, bone mineral density scan, and X-rays. The treatment advised for osteomalacia will be with supplements of vitamin D, phosphorus, and calcium. The other treatment methods for osteomalacia will be exposure to sunlight, consuming vitamin D and calcium-rich foods, using braces to control irregularities of bones, and, in severe cases of osteomalacia, surgical treatment will be advised for the correction of bone deformities.
