Speaking in the House of Commons on 17 December 2024

Debate

Musculoskeletal Conditions

Contribution

I hear my hon. Friend’s point about early intervention and making sure that we diagnose MSK conditions as soon as possible. A member of my extended family suffers from pregnancy-related osteoporosis, which needs to be picked up as soon as possible so that appropriate treatment can be put in place and mothers supported through it. A new charity has been set up specifically for pregnancy-associated osteoporosis, and it is pushing for the #MeasureThatMum campaign to make sure that midwives are trained to pick up the condition at that point, as early as is physically possible. Does my hon. Friend support that?
