Osteoarthritis ("OA") is a common condition that causes joints to become stiff and painful. If you have been diagnosed with knee OA, you are among the 14 million Americans with this condition. So, you are not alone!

OA causes the smooth cartilage that covers and protects the ends of your bones to break down. In severe cases, your cartilage thins so much that your bones may begin to rub against each other. The lubricating ability of the natural fluid in your knee diminishes, and the cartilage no longer cushions the joint as well as it once did. This results in stiffness, swelling, and pain that can make walking difficult.

What causes Knee Pain?

Symptoms

  • Aches and pains in the knee joint, especially with motion
  • Stiffness in the knee joint, especially in the morning or after resting
  • "Grating" or "scraping" feeling on the movement of the knee joint
  • Limited range of motion
  • Clicking or cracking sound when bending the knee
  • Muscle weakness or buckling (knee gives out)

Causes

  • Age – the risk of developing knee OA increases with age
  • Family History – for some people, a family history of knee OA may increase your risk
  • Overuse – using the joint over and over in a job or sport can result in knee OA
  • Weight – extra pounds put more stress on the knee joint
  • Gender – women are more likely to develop knee OA than men
  • Injury – an injury to the knee joint can increase your chances of knee OA later in life

Knee Pain FAQ

Some early signs may be pain when moving, standing, or sitting. Many people with OA notice that the pain worsens with exercise but goes away when resting. As time goes on, the knee becomes less and less flexible. Stiffness, swelling, and redness are other common symptoms. Some people with OA experience a grating sensation in the knee during movement. These symptoms are often painful and frequent, but they can be managed.
