Home Care Physiotherapy Treatment In New Friends Colony-Physionautics

OSTEOARTHRITIS is caused by the degeneration of the cartilage in the joints—the tissue that supports the weight of the bones. 

Damage to the cartilage causes the bones to touch against one another, which causes discomfort, inflammation, limited mobility, and stiffness in the joints. This will eventually result in a reduction in joint mobility. 

The hands,knees, and back are the joints that are usually impacted. 

The major causes that lead to the development of Osteoarthritis include: 

1.Age
