What is Osteoarthritis?
Osteoarthritis is wear and tear of the cartilage in joints — one of the most common orthopedic conditions, especially with increasing age. Hips, knees, hands, and the spine are most commonly affected. Symptoms include pain during exertion, morning stiffness, and progressive limitation of mobility. With targeted treatment — from physiotherapy to medication to lifestyle adjustments — we can significantly relieve symptoms.
