Disuse osteoporosis is osteoporosis caused by calcium loss due to lack of physical activity. It is secondary osteoporosis and has a lot to do with exercise. Clinically, it is more common for patients who are bed rest or paralyzed to show osteoporosis due to lack of timely movement of limbs. Osteoporosis patients will show reduced skin blood flow, muscle atrophy and bone pain after 6 months. At this time, exercise physiotherapy increases blood circulation to promote muscle strength recovery, increases bone strength and thus increases bone density. Reasonable exercise can improve symptoms and prevent other problems.
