Patients Concern
Disease/Condition Glossary
Osteoarthritis: It is a degenerative joint disorder in which the two ends of the joints come together due to the disintegration of a cartilage protective coating. Because this protective layer is missing, the joints rub against one other, causing discomfort and stiffness. Osteoarthritis symptoms include pain, inflammation, stiffness, and soreness. The major cause of osteoarthritis is ageing; the older you are, the more likely you are to get osteoarthritis, often known as a degenerative illness since the joints wear down as a person ages. Past injuries, such as damaged cartilage and dislocated joints and ligaments, are also explanations.
