Learn about common causes, symptoms, and treatments for Knee Osteoarthritis (OA). Find relief with simple tips and medical insights.
What Is Knee Osteoarthritis (OA)?
Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is a common joint condition caused by the gradual wear and tear of the cartilage that cushions the knee joint. As the cartilage breaks down, bones may rub together, leading to pain, stiffness, swelling, and reduced mobility.
​
OA is a chronic and progressive condition, but with the right care and lifestyle strategies, symptoms can be effectively managed, and joint function can be preserved.
Common Symptoms:
• Joint pain during or after movement
• Stiffness, especially in the morning
• Swelling or tenderness
• Loss of flexibility
• Grinding sensation in the joint
