Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common kind of arthritis. It is also known as "wear and tear" arthritis or degenerative joint disease. Typically, the hands, hips, and knees are affected. A joint's cartilage begins to deteriorate and the underlying bone begins to change as a result of OA. Usually, these changes take time to develop and get worse. OA can cause edema, stiffness, and discomfort. It causes some people to lose the ability to carry out daily tasks or jobs, which can also lead to decreased function and impairment.A doctor can diagnose OA through a review of your symptoms, a physical examination, X-rays, and lab tests. If the diagnosis raises any questions, A rheumatologist, a doctor who specializes in arthritis and other related conditions, may be able to help.
