10 Parathyroid Disease Symptoms

Skeletal Issues

Parathyroid is responsible for the production of calcium, an essential mineral for your bone health. Therefore, a lower or higher level than usual would lead to many problems with this structure. When there are not sufficient amounts, you would suffer from osteoporosis. This health condition is characterized by the weakening of the bones, which can fracture and brittle easily. It often occurs in your arms and legs, but can also affect other areas of the body as well. People with the disease tend to feel very painful and uncomfortable around affected areas. [2]
