Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common chronic joint condition and it lasts long. A joint is where two bones come together and are held together. The ends of these bones are covered with protective tissue known as cartilage. When a person is suffering from osteoarthritis, this cartilage breaks down, and it causes the bones within the joint to rub together. This rubbing of the bones causes pain, stiffness, and other symptoms.
Osteoarthritis occurs mostly in older people, but it can also occur in adults of any age group. Osteoarthritis is also called degenerative joint disease, degenerative arthritis, and wear-and-tear arthritis. This is one of the leading causes of disability, osteoarthritis affects more than 30 million men and women. Osteoarthritis is caused by bone damage and hence it is largely associated with the people of old age. The older you get , the more are the chances of suffering from osteoarthritis.
