Osteoarthritis Treatment
A wear-and-tear disease, osteoarthritis occurs when cartilage, the firm yet supple connective tissue surrounding bone heads, in joints degenerates. By acting as a shock absorber, cartilage makes joint movements smooth and frictionless. Due to its absence, the adjoining bones rub against each other, resulting in friction and bone damage. During the disease, the bone structure is altered and the ligaments and tendons are stretched. Various factors such as mechanical stress, injury, and subsequent faulty self-repairing of the joint tissue can lead to cartilage breakdown, leading to further pain, swelling, and deformation. Osteoarthritis has yet to be proven to be caused by defective signalling processes, inflammation of joints, overuse of joints, and gradual cartilage erosion.
