A member asked:
My grandma has osteoporosis, just broke her pelvis it went unnoticed for 2 wks. now she has anemia. can this be related to broken pelvis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Yes, your grandma may have anemia following a fracture but it is also possible that her anemia made her weak resulting in a fall. That said, her doctor must do everything possible to find out why she has anemia and what needs to be done to correct it.
