Fractures are common–there are millions in the United States every year–and can be caused by a number of things. People break bones in sports injuries, car accidents, falls, or from osteoporosis (bone weakening due to aging). Although most fractures are caused by trauma, they can be “pathologic” (caused by an underlying disease such as cancer or severe osteoporosis). There are more than one million “fragility” fractures every year that are due to osteoporosis. Medical care is needed immediately after a bone is fractured.
