FIRST DO NO HARM - ORTHOPAEDICS

Primum Non Nocere: The Guiding Principle in Orthopaedic Care "Primum non nocere," a Latin phrase translating to "First, do no harm," is a cornerstone principle in medicine. In the field of orthopaedics, which deals with the musculoskeletal system, this principle takes on a particular significance. Here's how "primum non nocere" shapes the practice of orthopaedic care: Balancing Intervention with Minimal Disruption: Orthopaedic surgeons treat a wide range of conditions, from bone fractures and joint pain to sports injuries and congenital disorders.

Growing Short - Yes That Happens ! Age Related Height Loss.

Understanding Age-Related Height Loss Losing a bit of height as we age is a common concern. Research suggests that most adults lose around 0.5 to 1 inch (1.3 to 2.5 cm) per decade after age 40. This shrinkage can be attributed to several factors: Spinal Degeneration: The discs between our vertebrae, which act as shock absorbers, naturally dehydrate with age. This loss of fluid leads to disc compression and a shortening of the spine. Studies have shown that this can account for up to 50% of height loss in older adults. Bone Loss: Our bones constantly undergo renewal, but bone formation typically outpaces breakdown until around age 30. After that, bone loss accelerates, especially in women after menopause. This can lead to vertebral fractures, which can cause a more substantial decrease in height. Muscle Mass Decline: Muscle mass naturally decreases with age, impacting posture and contributing to a stooped appearance. This can significantly affect perceived height. Why...
