Knee

Osteoarthritis is a degenerative condition, wear-and-tear that occurs most often with ageing, but may occur in younger people especially when there is past history of trauma.

In osteoarthritis, the cartilage in the knee joint gradually wears away and become rough and the protective space between the bones reduces gradually, this can result in bone rubbing on bone, and produce pain, stiffness and reduce range of motion.

Hip osteoarthritis (OA)

Hip OA is a disease which wears away the cartilage between the femoral head (ball) and the acetabulum (socket), the cartilage becomes eroded and pitted with rough surface then the joint space becomes narrow, when this progresses it becomes bone -on-bone. The result is pain, stiffness and instability. In some cases, motion of the leg may be greatly restricted.

Shoulder pain and main causes

Shoulder pain, stiffness and restriction of movement is commonly caused by either osteoarthritis or problem with the tendons like inflammation or tear, the diagnosis can be determined either by combination of x-ray and ultrasound or only MRI scan of the shoulder

Hand arthritis?

The symptoms of hand arthritis differ from person to person. A lot depends on the specific joints affected or the common activities that the person does. commonly pains and aches when they use their hands, joint stiffness, which may be more pronounced in the morning, difficulty moving their fingers with a weak grip. Swelling and tenderness in the knuckles or around the wrist due to both bone enlargements and associated inflammation.
