People still found it hard to believe that my mom, who was my only surviving parent, missed my University Convocation because of her knee and joint pain.

Just two years ago, Mom came down a severe knee and hip pain - osteoarthritis pain

It was so terrible and severe that she couldn't get out of bed early in the morning due to joint stiffness and muscle cramps

Having difficulty standing up and walking for a long period, even in the living room!

Osteoarthritis is the most common form of arthritis, affecting millions of people worldwide. It occurs when the protective cartilage that cushions the ends of the bones wears down over time.

Although osteoarthritis can damage any joint, the disorder most commonly affects joints in your hands, knees, hips and spine.

Symptoms

Osteoarthritis symptoms often develop slowly and worsen over time. Signs and symptoms of osteoarthritis include:

Pain: Affected joints might hurt during or after movement.

Stiffness: Joint stiffness might be most noticeable upon awakening or after being inactive.

Tenderness: Your joint might feel tender when you apply light pressure to or near it.

Loss of flexibility: You might not be able to move your joint through its full range of motion.

Swelling: This might be caused by soft tissue inflammation around the joint.

How have you or loved ones been coping with joint pain, what solution have you tried?
