Q: I underwent BMD (bone mineral densitometry) test and the result diagnosed osteopaenia. But I have been getting pain in the neck and back since the past 2 years. Despite taking Deca-durabolin 25 mg, I still get pain. I also take Bonestat daily. Is this due to Osteopaenia? What medicine should I take?

A:Osteopaenia is not a painful condition. You probably could have spondylosis for which you may need exercises.
