Usually the women are more prone to suffer from osteoarthritis after they go through the menopause.

The cartilage is a kind of soft tissue that makes a soft cushion between the two bones of the joint and lubricates the bones so that they can slide over each other during the movement. When the cartilages wear out due to some reason or the other, the bones rub against each other since there is no lubrication.

This new growth can also cause a lot of discomfort and pain while also limiting the mobility. There are many signs that warn a...
