Osteoporosis Questions

Health Query

Hello, I have ulcerative colitis since 2011, was using imuran and ursofalk for 6 years then I stopped them and started using mp6 for 2 years, then I stopped it since 6 months because I can't handle it anymore, I had skin issues and liver hypertrophy and many problems. I was running and had my left foot twisted which resulted a broken metatarsal base v (jones fracture) then I had it in a cast for 7 weeks then started physiotherapy for 2 weeks which was painful, my foot became bigger (tumor) and had very little improvement then, made x-ray found that I had osteoporosis. Q1: should I continue my physiotherapy during osteoporosis which need 2 to 6 months I guess or stop it? Q2: what is the result of stopping the treatment for my ulcerative colitis?

Asked for male, 62 years old from Ghaziabad

Hi, I am 62 years active male and have acute knee problem for the last 2 months. Of late, I am experiencing difficulty in walking as well. I have gone for knee x-rays which shows signs of osteoporosis. The doctor has prescribed some medicines and exercises for one month, which I have started but little relief. Will I be in a normal position or have to go for knee replacement.

The surgery depends on the severity of the knee joint osteoporosis. You can still maintain the pain with the exercises and tablets.

Deca durabolin is an anabolic steroid which basically increases protein synthesis in body. It is usually prescribed to older patients who have less protein synthesis in their body. You can have many side effects if not used under proper guidance. But why you, at age of 35 needs deca durabolin?

Get a bmd done first and visit orthopedic surgeon.
Depend on the report, you may prescribe medications.
If your report says osteoporosis, you might need to start on tereperatide.

You should not take injection decadurabolin now & ever, as it is likely to reject you in competitive sports.
