Osteoarthritis is a joint disorder accompanied by joint pain and varying degrees of functional limitation and reduced quality of life. It is the most common form of arthritis, and one of the leading causes of pain and disability worldwide. Osteoarthritis affects the joint cartilage and underlying bone. It is particularly associated with increasing age, although it can occur in younger individuals who excessively use their joints in work or athletic activities. The most commonly affected peripheral joints are the knees, hips and small hand joints.
Healthy cartilage acts as a cushion and protects joint by allowing bones to glide over each other smoothly and also helps absorb the shock of movement. In osteoarthritis, the top layer of cartilage breaks down and wears away. This allows bones under the cartilage to rub together. The rubbing causes pain, swelling, and loss of motion of the joint. Over time, the joint may lose its normal shape. Bits of bone or cartilage can break off and float inside the joint space, which causes more pain and damage.
