Affecting over 32.5 million adults in the United States, osteoarthritis is one of the leading disabling diseases and the most common form of arthritis. It affects the joints, causing wear and tear, inflammation, and pain.
This type of arthritis affects any joint, including the bone, cartilage, ligament, and synovium, the tissue lining the joint. Cartilage is a firm but slippery tissue that cushions the joint, allowing for the joint’s frictionless movement.
