Why do my bones damage so easily?

[Anonymous]

I had a blood test so I'm not deficient in vitamin d

But I jumped on the sofa because I saw a mouse and I think my foot went the wrong way or something and it was sore and ache for about 5-6 weeks

Then I did some gardening used those big hedge cutters and the bone at my wrist has been sore and achey for 3 weeks now.

Why are my bones so prone to damage? Or is it my muscles?

I just turned 33, is it my age or maybe I am deficient in something and should get a second opinion?

Joints not bones. If you actually damaged your bones you'd not be "achy" for weeks you'd be in a LOT of pain. People when they break bones, usually end up screaming.

Get yourself tested for arthritis. Depending on your family history & ethnicity you are likely more prone to arthritis and joint issues then issues with your bones.

Also get yourself a full blood workup from a professional doctor - by this I mean explain what is going on properly - as some definancies will indeed cause sore muscles.

What other symptoms do you have? Anything unexplained other than this?

sounds more like joints, than bones. it was the sudden pressure jumping and pressure of tool. if the pain stays many hours ask real doctor if you need joint doc. but probably only the pressing so will fade soon after.

Are you an outside person or inside person

Natural sunlight is a great source for strong healthy bones. Being outside like 4 hrs a day is great for the body and the mind

Me I'm outside from about 4am till out 9pm in the summers and about half that in the winters

landing with wrong position on the foot would cause ankle issue , strain etc, if you turned or rolled your ankle and it hurt for 5-6 weeks sounds like a tendon strain or sprain not bone or you wouldn't be walking. its not your bones unless you keep breaking them. could be your joints maybe arthritis could be anything, ligaments, tendons etc, muscles if you aren't used to doing things like gardening or move wrong.

I mean, you've gotta use it or lose it.

Are you generally active and do you do the basics to keep your body ticking over ie at least an hour's walk per day? After that you can build up with light to moderate exercise, yoga, stretching etc.

Obviously, presuming there's not any underlying health problem.

How active have you been? Bone density has a relationship to stress. That's why body builders and martial artists have high bone density. They have put their body in controled levels of stress. Maybe start using weights or rubber band exercises a few times a week while getting the proper nutrition.

What was your vitamin D blood level results? Most Doctors see the bare minimum as more than sufficient. How much vitamin D3 do you take daily? It's possible your K2 levels are in question.

I’m not sure. You should consult your doctor.
