  • Our parents and grandparents always try their
    best to keep themselves fit and healthy. Be it
    joining a yoga class or going for long morning
    walks, they enjoy taking care of their health.
    Yet, sometimes, you observe them say, I dont
    feel like going on a walk today! or I should
    stop knitting! No matter how many times you ask
    what the matter is, they choose to say they are
    fine, but actually suffer in silence. The reason
    they may be avoiding participating in physical
    activities can be the early onset of
    osteoarthritis the most common joint disease
    that affects knee joints, hands, feet, hips and
    the spine.

  • Osteoarthritis is a progressive disease and also
    known as arthritis of the bone. It relates to
    the breaking down of the smooth cartilage in the
    joints which help it move easily. The cartilage
    which is also a shock absorber reduces friction
    in the joints. The wearing away of this cartilage
    leads to an increase in friction in the joints
    which as a result, causes pain.
  • In India, this joint disease has a prevalence of
    22 to 39 and is more common in women than men.
    Apart from age, other factors like previous
    injury, obesity and a sedentary lifestyle may
    lead to osteoarthritis. The onset of
    osteoarthritis can be spotted with acute
    observation at home before visiting a doctor for
    treatment. Below are some of the early symptoms
    you must look out for as an indicator of
    osteoarthritis.
