Osteoporosis represents a public health problem that can be prevented and treated early through health education. Over time, screening techniques, diagnosis and treatments even conservative and surgical, have improved. Through this publication we want to highlight the importance of the medical and orthopedic management of these fractures, describing the benefit of diet and physical exercise as the protagonists of conservative treatment but above all its indications and contraindications, emphasizing the limitations of exercise in a vertebral osteoporotic fracture. The different orthoses prescriptions are also highlighted.
