What Is Arthritis

Arthritis is the leading cause of chronic knee pain and physical disability in India, affecting 1 in 5 people—mostly those aged 60 and above.

Top 3 Arthritis Types Causing Bone Deterioration

Osteoarthritis

A degenerative condition where cartilage and synovial tissue wear down over time, causing bones to rub together, leading to pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility.

Rheumatoid Arthritis

An autoimmune disease where the immune system attacks the synovial lining, cartilage, and bone, resulting in joint inflammation, pain, and functional loss—more common in women and can affect any age group.

Trauma Related Arthritis

Occurs after joint injuries (like fractures or ligament tears) that alter joint mechanics, eventually causing pain, stiffness, and limited movement.
