Osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint condition that occurs when your cartilage breaks down. Cartilage is located between your joints to ease movement and cushion your bones. When cartilage breaks down, movement is impaired, and swelling and inflammation develop, leaving you in pain.
Anyone can develop osteoarthritis, but it’s most common in men and women over 65 years old.
There are more than 100 types of arthritis.
Several factors can increase your risk of developing osteoarthritis, including:
Osteoarthritis is also more common in women than men.
Osteoarthritis symptoms are most apparent in joints that bear weight, like the hips, knees, and back, but they also appear in the shoulders, hands, and neck.
