Explain The Physical And Physical Changes Associated With Ageing
Life Stages
I will be explaining the physical and psychological changes which may be associated with ageing.
Physical changes – skin, bones and joints * Skin becomes more wrinkled, thinner and less elastic. * Bones are less dense and are more likely to suffer from minor or serve injuries. * Joints stiffen and can be more painful as the bones thin out. * Muscles become weakened and loosen. * The spine may round which leads to hunched backs and other spine conditions.
Senses: * Vision is not as good as it use to be, sometimes with ageing comes an eye condition known as cataracts. * Deteriorating may occur within the senses of taste and smell. * Sense of hearing will deteriorate becoming more difficult to hear
