Osteoarthritis (OA) is one of Australia's most common joint conditions, affecting millions of people, particularly those over 40. It impacts the entire joint, including bone, cartilage, ligaments, and muscles, causing pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility.
If you're living with knee OA, you're not alone. Most people with OA are over 45, and many experience symptoms before age 65. Currently, very few treatments slow or stop OA progression, and most options focus only on managing pain and inflammation.
