Osteoarthritis Overview

Osteoarthritis is the most common form of arthritis, characterized by the gradual breakdown of cartilage the protective tissue at the ends of bones. As the cartilage wears down, bones begin to rub against each other, leading to pain, stiffness, swelling, and reduced joint mobility.

It most commonly affects weight-bearing joints such as the knees, hips, and spine, as well as the hands. Osteoarthritis is strongly associated with aging, but other risk factors include obesity, joint injuries, genetics, and repetitive stress on joints.
