Osteoarthritis
Also called degenerative joint disease or osteoarthrosis, osteoarthritis is the most common form of arthritis, and it is the leading cause of pain and disability among older adults.
Osteoarthritis is a condition that implies the deterioration of the cartilage that protects and covers the joint surfaces. Eventually, as the bones are no longer separated by cartilage, they cause the damage of the underlying tissue and bone by rubbing, and cause the occurrence of painful joint symptoms of osteoarthritis. This involves changes in the entire joint: degradation of the joint cartilage, remodeling of the subchondral bone, the formation of osteophytes, injuries of the bone marrow, changes in the joint capsule, synovial membrane, ligaments, meniscus, and periarticular muscles.
The disease often affects the joints of the spine, fingers, hips, knees, or toes.

Osteoarthritis is the most common chronic joint condition. It is a degenerative condition that manifests mainly in the elderly, but it can also appear as a result of a joint injury or infection.
Osteoarthritis (also called arthritis) can affect any joint. However, the most commonly affected areas of the body are the joints that support more weight, such as the joints of the knee, hip, and spine, but also the hands (finger joints).
