Osteoarthritis

Introduction
Osteo mean bones, arth means joints, and it is means swollen, red or painful. Altogether this means that this is a diesis all about painful inflammation of joints and bones. Osteoarthritis is the most common type of arthritis found so far. It is a degenerative joint diesis, which is also its alternative name. It causes damage to the lining of the joints. It results as a part of aging, wear and tear of bones and joints. It can cause sever damage for hip, backbone and knee joints but these can be replaced.

Causes
Mostly it is a result of aging process and most of the patients are above 40- 45 years of age. Cartilage which is found in joints and bone’s junction prevent the friction between the joints during the movement but it wears away gradually, it will cause osteoarthritis. But basically there is no prominent reason of the diesis at the initial stages. Any abnormal activity in cells of bones may result as osteoarthritis.

Symptoms
It’s not important that the symptoms remain same for all patients .it may vary from one person to another. But generally patients suffering from this kind of arthritis complain of inflammation in joint areas with fever and shivers. There can be swelling too and redness also can be noticed in the infected area. The most affected areas are knee joints, hip joints and hands, which are excessively used throughout our lives. In some sever cases thorough loss of cartilage between the bones can cause acute pain and stiffness in joints. There can be stiffness in bones noticed at early morning but which may be recovered in 30 min or less.

Risk Factor
Age is the most common and imminent factor of osteoarthritis. People at the age of 20’s or 30’s can become a victim of the diesis but usually it is a diesis of 40s and 50s.men and women both can get this diesis at any age because of their genes inheritance or because of being overweight.

Diagnosis
On the basis of symptoms and x-rays, it can be diagnosed, there are also several other ways of diagnosis of arthritis such as MRI scan which can give a closer view of the condition of the joints. No blood test is necessary for this. Bony enlargement is the most significant feature of the osteoarthritis.
