"Use it or lose it," is true with your brain or your joints.
Osteoarthritis is perhaps the oldest known form of arthritis. Evidence of this form of arthritis has been found in ice-aged skeletons. It is commonly known as the "wear-and-tear" kind of arthritis and is characterized by breakdown of the joint cartilage. Osteoarthritis most commonly affects the weight-bearing joints of the hips, knees and lower back. It causes joint stiffness, pain and loss of movement of the joint involved. It is important that you take an active role in the treatment of your OA and in prevention of additional joint damage. A wide range of surgical and non-surgical options is available for treatment.
