What happens to Bones not subjected ordinary stress?

Bones that are not subjected to ordinary stress undergo a process called atrophy, which leads to a decrease in bone density and strength.

- This occurs because the body recognizes that the bone is not being used as much and reallocates the calcium and other minerals that make up the bone to other areas of the body where they can be utilized.

- As a result, the bone becomes thinner and weaker, and is more susceptible to fracture.

- This is why it is important to engage in regular physical activity to maintain bone health.
