What is osteoarthritis?
Osteoarthritis is a chronic joint disease in which articular cartilage decreases and rebuilds. The process is accompanied by reactive changes in the area of adjacent bone tissues, as well as changes in insertions and ligaments around the affected joint.

Typical for arthritis of large joints are so-called starter pains - ie pains that are at the very beginning of movement after a longer period of rest and disappear within a few minutes of active movement.
