Knee osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint condition where the cartilage cushioning the bones gradually breaks down. Without this protective layer, bones rub against one another, leading to pain, stiffness, swelling, and reduced mobility.
As a progressive condition, knee osteoarthritis can worsen over time—but with the right approach, symptoms can be managed, joint health can be preserved, and long-term activity can be maintained.
Several factors increase the risk of knee osteoarthritis, including:

as cartilage naturally wears down with time

with family history playing a role

which adds stress to the knee joints

such as ligament tears or fractures

from certain sports or occupations

including rheumatoid arthritis or metabolic disorders
Symptoms may begin mildly and progress over time. Common signs include:
Persistent knee pain, worse with activity and relieved by rest
Stiffness, especially after sitting or sleeping
Swelling from joint inflammation
Decreased range of motion, making it harder to bend or straighten the knee
Grinding or cracking sensations during movement
Lifestyle-Based Approaches
Weight management to reduce pressure on the knee
Exercise with low-impact activities such as swimming, cycling, or walking
Physical therapy to strengthen supporting muscles and improve stability
Medical Management
Pain relievers such as acetaminophen or NSAIDs
Corticosteroid injections for temporary relief of inflammation
