Osteoarthritis
What is Osteoarthritis and how can we help you?
Osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint disease that is a result of the breaking down of joint cartilage and underlying bone. The symptoms generally slowly progress over the years. The symptoms eventually interfere with daily activities and work. We can help treat the pain and other symptoms at STG Health and Wellness.
Causes and Risk Factors
It is caused by connective tissue disease, abnormal development of limb or joint, previous joint injury as well as inherited factors. Risk factors that can bring on this illness are jobs with high levels of joint stress, being overweight and legs of different lengths.
