OSTEOARTHRITIS

What is Osteoarthritis (OA)?

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic joint condition involving the gradual breakdown of cartilage, which cushions bones in the joints. As cartilage wears away, bones may rub against each other, causing pain, swelling, and limited movement. OA commonly affects weight-bearing joints like knees, hips, and the spine, but can occur in any joint.

Aging: Natural deterioration of cartilage over time.

Joint Injuries: Previous injuries or surgeries can lead to OA later.

Repetitive Stress: Repeated joint use in certain jobs or activities can damage cartilage.

Genetics: Family history of OA can increase susceptibility.

Obesity: Extra weight places stress on joints, accelerating cartilage breakdown.

Joint Pain and Stiffness: Discomfort, especially after movement or rest.

Loss of Flexibility: Decreased range of motion in affected joints.

Swelling and Tenderness: Inflammation and sensitivity around the joint.

Grating Sensation: A feeling of bone friction or “grating” during movement.

OA can significantly impact daily life, making simple tasks difficult and diminishing quality of life over time.
