Knee Osteoarthritis & Regenerative Solutions

What Is Knee Osteoarthritis?

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.

What Causes Knee Osteoarthritis?

Several factors increase the risk of knee osteoarthritis, including:

Age

as cartilage naturally wears down with time

Genetics

with family history playing a role

Excess weight

which adds stress to the knee joints

Previous injuries

such as ligament tears or fractures

Repetitive stress

from certain sports or occupations

Underlying health conditions

including rheumatoid arthritis or metabolic disorders

What Symptoms Should You Watch For?

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

What Are the Treatment Options?

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
