Arthritis is basically a symptom and not a disease, but it is often thought of as a disease. There are over hundreds of diseases that have arthritis as a common symptom. One of those diseases is osteoarthritis.<\/p>\n

According to a study, Arthritis affects the knees of more than 5% of the population in India with over 1\/4th of the patients under the age of 55. It is initially started on the inner or medial side of the knee, causing uncomfortable movement and over time leads to complete restriction in knee movement. However, there are many risk factors that are involved in the development of Osteoarthritis in a joint. However, it mostly causes due to the \u201cwear and tear\u201d from excessive stress on a joint over time. Mostly old aged are prone to the\u00a0diseases, but\u00a0now a good amount of young people\u00a0are suffering\u00a0from the same. However, primary Osteoarthritis is idiopathic in nature with no known cause of arthritis, and secondary is arthritis-related to some other health condition such as trauma, congenital or developmental disease, an inflammatory disease, or obesity.<\/p>\n
