Osteomalacia is a medical condition characterized by the softening of bones due to inadequate mineralization, primarily caused by a deficiency of vitamin D, calcium, or phosphate. It leads to bone pain, muscle weakness, and an increased risk of fractures. Unlike osteoporosis, which involves a loss of bone density, osteomalacia specifically affects the bone matrix's mineral content. Treatment typically involves supplementation of vitamin D and calcium, along with addressing any underlying causes.
