Falls and accidents seldom “just happen.” The more you take care of your overall health and well-being, the more likely you’ll be to lower your chances of falling. Here are a few hints:
- Ask your doctor about a special test – called a bone mineral density test – that tells how strong your bones are. If need be, your doctor can prescribe new medications that will help make your bones stronger and harder to break.
