Osteoarthritis is one of the most common forms of arthritis. Characterized by wear and tear of joints, Osteoarthritis occurs when the cartilage of a joint is eroded and it can occur in any joint of the body. However, most commonly, it affects the weight-bearing joints, such as spine, hips and knees. It may also affect thumb, fingers, large toe and neck. Let’s take a look at what causes osteoarthritis, and what osteoarthritis treatment is available in Homeopathy.
Causes of Osteoarthritis
Osteoarthritis can occur because of a wide number of causes, including, heredity, obesity, injury, joint overuse, and due to various diseases. Whereas some people inherit the defected genes responsible for joint erosion, the others may acquire it because of obesity, injury or other diseases. Let’s find out the four major causes of osteoarthritis:
- Heredity – There are some people who are born with a defect in the genes responsible for cartilage formation. It leads to defective cartilage and a rapid deterioration of the joints. Usually, people with joint abnormalities are likely to develop osteoarthritis.
- Obesity – In people with obesity, there is an increased tendency to develop osteoarthritis of knee, hip and spine. Therefore, maintaining ideal weight is important to prevent the likelihood of osteoarthritis.
- Injury – Injuries can lead to development of the joint arthritis. For instance, sports persons who have recurrent knee injury are likely to develop osteoarthritis of the knee joint.
- Joint Overuse – Overuse of some joints can lead to development of its osteoarthritis. For instance, people with overuse of knee bending tend to develop knee arthritis.
