Knee stiffness hampers movement
Osteoarthritis of the knee, or knee wear and tear, is a condition characterized by the erosion of the joint cartilage, leading to pain, stiffness, and difficulty moving. Its likelihood increases with age, but it can affect anyone—especially women and those who are overweight. The worsening of the condition is often due to repeated injuries, overexertion, and limited activity. Symptoms include pain when walking up stairs or after activity, stiffness, swelling, and a decreasing ability to move. Diagnosis primarily relies on clinical examination and medical history. Treatment typically involves exercises, weight reduction, pain relievers, injections, and surgery when necessary. It is also important to maintain an active lifestyle and a balanced diet to prevent the condition from worsening.
