Conservative Management for Delayed Unions and Non-Unions (LIPUS & PEMF)
Bone healing can be unpredictable, with some fractures leading to delayed unions or non-unions. Low-Intensity Pulsed Ultrasound (LIPUS) and Pulsed Electromagnetic Field (PEMF) therapy offer non-invasive solutions for these conditions, avoiding surgical risks. LIPUS utilizes sound waves to enhance cellular activity, vascularization, and callus formation, thereby accelerating bone regeneration. PEMFBone healing can be unpredictable, with some fractures leading to delayed unions or non-unions. Low-Intensity Pulsed Ultrasound (LIPUS) and Pulsed Electromagnetic Field (PEMF) therapy offer non-invasive solutions for these conditions, avoiding surgical risks. LIPUS utilizes sound waves to enhance cellular activity, vascularization, and callus formation, thereby accelerating bone regeneration. PEMF therapy applies electromagnetic pulses to stimulate osteoblast function, improve blood flow, and modulate inflammation, essential for bone healing. Both therapies are effective in reducing healing time and improving outcomes. Igea Medical provides home-use LIPUS and PEMF devices, facilitating patient compliance and consistent treatment.

Causes of Low Bone Density: Risk Factors and Prevention Strategies
Low bone density, known as osteopenia or osteoporosis, results from reduced bone mass, making bones fragile. It commonly arises due to aging, menopause, nutritional deficits, and inactivity. Diagnosis through Dexa scans evaluates bone mineral content. Contributing factors include genetics, medications, and chronic conditions. Unmanaged low bone density risks severe fractures,Low bone density, known as osteopenia or osteoporosis, results from reduced bone mass, making bones fragile. It commonly arises due to aging, menopause, nutritional deficits, and inactivity. Diagnosis through Dexa scans evaluates bone mineral content. Contributing factors include genetics, medications, and chronic conditions. Unmanaged low bone density risks severe fractures, chronic pain, and reduced mobility. Recovery involves calcium, vitamin D intake, and exercises, potentially taking months to years. Prevention includes a nutritious diet and regular screenings, especially post-menopause. Immediate medical attention is essential for complications like sudden severe pain or fractures. Physical therapy significantly aids rehabilitation, while medication or surgery is considered when non-invasive methods fall short.
