Frequently Asked Questions

What are some common osteoarthritis causes?

Osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint disease caused by wear and tear on the joints over time, as well as other factors. Common causes of osteoarthritis include age-related wear and tear, previous injury to the joint, excess body weight, genetics, repetitive strain injuries, bone deformities or growths, hormonal changes in women, some medications and infections. Many of these potential causes can increase an individual’s risk for developing this condition.

How do I know if I have osteoarthritis?

Osteoarthritis can cause pain, swelling and stiffness in the joints, especially those of the neck, shoulders, lower back, hips, hands and feet. Joints may feel tender when touched and movements may be limited. 

Other common symptoms include cracking or grinding noises in the joints while moving them (known as crepitus) and deformities.
