Chiropractor.
First meet an ortho and see if exercises will help? (Not an expert)
Adhan physio. Ortho means doctor.
The one I go to is a sports physio but can find out if anyone else is there. But KKN and valasaravakkam has a few physio clinics.
Swami there is a clinic in Nanganallur that uses ayurveda siddha yoga and other methods for complicated issues.ping me and will give you the detals
Also, if looking for ortho, Pallava hospital Dr. Selvam is really good. Has been practicing since my sister had a fracture lol in school. Excellent care for my mom in Chennai. Very non-intrusive but good, solid, data based diagnosis.
Only red flag is will not let you stay with mom during diagnosis, only nurses allowed. But she said she felt comfortable.
I have seen yoga help my mom on posture
Surya Namaskar?
Yes and a few other stretches.. like 30-45 min 3 times a week
Pls try to find AdCST Or Meru Chikitsa Healer in Chennai. I can also check within my AOL community meanwhile
I strongly believe exercise, and vit-D / calcium / protein intake will play a major role. Unless there is arthritis or Parkinson’s related thing.
I thing she should get a blood test and visit someone who can suggest exercises.
Just spoke to my friend who is a yoga teacher in AOL and also a Meru Chikitsa Healer. He said there are many such cases that have been cured through Meru Chikitsa
He asked me for your Chennai address so that he can check for expert healers in your area. So pls send
I myself have been healed completely of severe neck and back pain through Meru Chikitsa
Waiting for our expert to comment😀, but I believe it could also be due to calcium deficiency over time which especially gets worse for women (after menopause). Could check for that. My grandmom developed hunch back and she also had calcium deficiency and think had broken her leg bone once too from what I can recall. Perhaps the spine bones start to wear out or get compressed. Stretching and exercise from Yoga that Cka suggested seems like first think to try.
Age-related osteoporosis along with chronic postural imbalance are the likely issues. Unfortunately, very common in elderly women and especially South Asian women because of nutritional imbalance as well. Pain control as needed and physical therapy should be helpful. Yoga is good as involves stretching the posterior truncal muscles.
If the prior wrist fracture was fall related then highly predictive of a future hip fracture due to fragility. Should get an ortho check-up with basic x-rays, DEXA scan and get started on some high-dose calcium and vitamin D supplements.
