What is bone care used for?

Bone care covers the diagnosis and management of conditions that affect bone strength, joint health, and musculoskeletal function. This includes osteoporosis, arthritis, fractures, metabolic bone disease, bone infections, and spinal deformities. At MaxPetz Goa Porvorim in Porvorim, bone care also encompasses rehabilitation and long-term monitoring to prevent deterioration and support recovery.

How do I care for my bones and keep them strong?

Maintaining bone health involves adequate intake of calcium and vitamin D, regular weight-bearing exercise, avoiding smoking, and limiting alcohol. Routine bone density screening is recommended for adults over 50 and post-menopausal women. If you have risk factors for bone loss, a clinical assessment at MaxPetz Goa Porvorim can help identify the right preventive or treatment approach.

Which foods help increase bone density?

Foods that support bone density include dairy products (milk, yoghurt, cheese), leafy green vegetables (kale, broccoli), fortified cereals and plant milks, oily fish (salmon, sardines), nuts, and seeds. These provide calcium, vitamin D, magnesium, and phosphorus — all essential for bone mineralisation. A clinician can advise on dietary adjustments alongside any prescribed bone care treatment.

What drink makes bones stronger?

Milk and fortified plant-based milks (soy, oat, almond) are among the most effective drinks for bone strength due to their calcium and vitamin D content. Fortified orange juice is another option. Avoiding excessive caffeine and alcohol is equally important, as both can interfere with calcium absorption and bone density over time.

When should I see a bone care specialist in Porvorim?

You should seek a bone care consultation if you experience persistent joint pain, unexplained fractures, back pain with suspected spinal deformity, or have been diagnosed with conditions such as osteoporosis, rheumatoid arthritis, or vitamin D deficiency. Adults over 50 or those on long-term steroid therapy should consider routine bone density screening at MaxPetz Goa Porvorim, Porvorim.

What diagnostic tests are used in bone care at MaxPetz Goa Porvorim?

The bone care team at MaxPetz Goa Porvorim uses DEXA scanning for bone density measurement, digital X-ray for fracture and joint assessment, MRI for soft tissue and bone marrow evaluation, and blood tests covering calcium, vitamin D, phosphate, and inflammatory markers. Bone biopsy may be arranged where malignancy or infection is suspected. Use the booking form on this page to arrange diagnostics.
