Warning Signs Of Osteomalacia

Issues With Walking

Due to the weakness that develops throughout the pelvic girdle with increased bone softening, a patient with osteomalacia can develop an awkward gait that resembles waddling. Walking becomes more difficult as time elapses, and the more pressure is placed on the pelvic girdle from body weight, the more problematic walking will likely be. Going up and down flights of stairs can become much more difficult, and even getting up from a seated position can become painful and frustrating for someone with osteomalacia. This also tends to limit the amount of exercise a person will do since walking becomes a painful task.
