bones - #18928
I’ve been dealing with some joint and bone pain lately, and I’m curious about the bones in my body and how they function. I know that bones are essential for providing structure and support, but I’m unsure how they change over time or in response to various health conditions. Could you explain how bones work, what their role is in the body, and how bone health is maintained throughout life? From what I understand, bones are living tissues that constantly rebuild and remodel, but what happens when the process of bone remodeling goes awry, as in conditions like osteoporosis or osteoarthritis? How can I tell if my bones are losing density or strength, and what are the early signs that my bones may need attention or care? I’m concerned about how bones are affected by diet and exercise. How can I ensure that I’m getting enough calcium, vitamin D, and other nutrients that are crucial for bone health? Are there exercises that help keep the bones strong, and are weight-bearing activities particularly beneficial for strengthening bone density? Additionally, I’m wondering how injuries, like fractures or sprains, affect the bones. How do bones heal after an injury, and is there anything I should be doing to support the healing process to prevent long-term complications? Lastly, I’ve heard that bone health can be affected by age. How does the aging process impact the bones, and what steps can I take as I get older to maintain bone strength and reduce the risk of fractures or other bone-related conditions? If you have advice on maintaining bone health or tips on preventing bone loss, I’d love to hear your thoughts on the best strategies for taking care of my bones throughout life.

calcium and vitamin d3 tablets - #19535
For the last few months, I've been dealing with constant pain in my knees and lower back. At first, I thought it was just normal tiredness, but it's not going away. It gets worse when I sit for too long or climb stairs. I finally went to the doctor, and they said my bone density is a bit low and prescribed calcium and vitamin d3 tablets. I’ve been taking them for about a month now, but I don't really feel any difference. My joints still feel stiff in the morning, and the pain is still there. I don’t know if these calcium and vitamin d3 tablets are actually doing anything or if my body isn’t absorbing them properly. I also read somewhere that taking these tablets for too long might have side effects, like kidney stones or stomach issues. I don't want to keep taking them forever if there’s another way to fix this problem. I also feel bloated all the time after taking these calcium and vitamin d3 tablets, so I don't know if it's related or just a coincidence. I started wondering if Ayurveda has a better way to strengthen bones naturally instead of relying on these calcium and vitamin d3 tablets. Are there specific foods, herbs, or oils that help with weak bones? Also, is there something wrong with my digestion that’s preventing my body from using these nutrients properly? Maybe there are some Ayurvedic remedies to improve calcium absorption? I’ve heard of things like Muktashukti Bhasma and Ashwagandha, but I don’t know if they would help in my case. What would you suggest to naturally improve bone health without depending on these calcium and vitamin d3 tablets? Are there Ayurvedic treatments or massages that can help with joint pain? I’m open to trying herbal remedies, but I don’t know where to start. Also, should I stop taking these tablets suddenly or reduce them gradually? Looking for some real advice before I keep taking something that might not even be helping.
