What is Osteoarthritis?

Osteoarthritis occurs when the cartilage that cushions the ends of bones in your joints gradually deteriorates. Cartilage is a firm, slippery tissue that enables nearly frictionless joint motion. Eventually, if the cartilage wears down completely, bone will rub on bone.

Symptoms

Pain. Affected joints might hurt during or after movement.
Stiffness. Joint stiffness might be most noticeable upon awakening or after being inactive.
Tenderness.
Loss of flexibility.
Grating sensation.
Bone spurs.
Swelling.

Complications

Pain.
Falls.
Difficulty ambulation.
Joint malalignment.
Decreased range of motion of the joint.
Radiculopathies.

Causes

Aging.
Being overweight or obese.
History of injury or surgery to a joint.
Overuse from repetitive movements of the joint.
Joints that do not form correctly.
Family history of osteoarthritis.

Prevention

It's not possible to prevent osteoarthritis altogether. However, you may be able to minimise your risk of developing the condition by avoiding injury and living a healthy lifestyle.

Risk factors

Injury or overuse, such as knee bending and repetitive stress on a joint, can damage a joint and increase the risk of OA in that joint. Age—The risk of developing OA increases with age. Gender—Women are more likely to develop OA than men, especially after age 50.

How is it diagnosed?

How is it diagnosed?

The main treatments for the symptoms of osteoarthritis include:

Lifestyle measures – such as maintaining a healthy weight and exercising regularly
Medication – to relieve your pain
Supportive therapies – to help make everyday activities easier

In a few cases, where other treatments have not been helpful, surgery to repair, strengthen or replace damaged joints may also be considered.
