When To Call A Professional

Call your doctor if you have joint pain, a grinding sensation in joints or limited joint motion.

Prognosis

When treated properly, osteoarthritis is rarely crippling. However, it is a long-lasting disease that may require ongoing care and possible changes in treatment over time.
