Mostly middle-aged and elderly people are ill. The disease is characterized by duration and persistent flow with frequent exacerbations.
CONTENTS
Causes and Symptoms
The causes of this disease are not completely known. Deforming arthrosis can affect both one and many joints. In its development, the main role is given to overload and disruption of cartilage nutrition. As a result, some of the cartilage cells die, the elasticity of the cartilage is lost, and the opacity and cracks in the cartilaginous tissue appear.
At the initial stages, patients complain of a crunch in the joints and a poorly expressed pain during exercise. They become sensitive to weather changes and changes in atmospheric pressure.
Later, there is a restriction of joint mobility and a sharp pain in the rotation or retraction of the limb. Develop limping and shortening of the limb. During this period, the pain is intense and almost constant. In elderly people, some shortening( up to 10 cm) of the limb may be due to a pronounced decrease in the height of the articular cartilage and muscle hypotrophy.
Factors influencing the development of osteoarthritis are divided into:
- external - joint overloads( for example, due to weight lifting), injuries, occupational effects, hypothermia of joints,
- internal - the influence of heredity with overgrowth of ligaments and joint looseness, ovarian dysfunction and climacteric changes in women, vascular accidents, circulatory disorders in the tissues of cartilage, obesity.
