HealthPhoto: HT HealthDoctor Explains When Height Loss Signals Weak Bones
Dr. G V Reddy, orthopaedic consultant at Manipal Hospital, Vijayawada, explains that while slight height loss with age is normal, noticeable reduction may indicate osteoporosis. This condition weakens bones, especially vertebrae in the spine, making them prone to compression fractures that can reduce height without pain or injury. Height loss should not be dismissed as just aging but evaluated for bone health.
