Understanding Hand Osteoarthritis
Hand osteoarthritis is the most common joint disease worldwide. It occurs when the structures that support joint movement, cartilage, bone, ligaments, and surrounding tissues gradually change over time. As cartilage breaks down, joints may become stiff, swollen, and painful. Yet structural changes alone do not explain symptoms, which is why understanding the forces that drive hand OA is essential for effective treatment.
