Osteoporosis is a chronic disease that is characterized by a loss of bone density, which mainly affects the microstructure of the bones due to a decrease in bone mass, thereby making them more fragile and susceptible to fractures. The intricate balance of bone remodeling, influenced by hormonal changes, aging, genetics, nutritional deficiencies, and lifestyle factors, plays a pivotal role in the development of osteoporosis. While the condition often progresses silently, leading to fragility fractures, understanding its symptoms, such as back pain, height loss, and fractures, is crucial for early detection. Osteoporosis increases the risk of fracture in our elderly population and increases morbidity. Here, we present a case of osteoporosis with a fracture diagnosed in clinical settings. A 67 years old female patient was admitted in Multispeciality hospital due to dull aching pain in her lower back for the past 6 months and she had hypertension for past 12 years and on investigation, she was diagnosed with Osteoporosis by DEXA scan. After starting the therapy her vitals become normal level and she retained consciousness. On the fifth day she was discharged with the instructions regarding the medications to be followed up.
