Osteoarthritis (OA) is a type of joint disease that results from breakdown of joint cartilage and underlying bone. The most common symptoms are joint pain and stiffness. Initially, symptoms may occur only following exercise, but over time may become constant.
Unlike other types of arthritis, only the joints are typically affected. The formation of hard nobs at the middle finger joints (known as Bouchard's nodes ) and at the farther away finger joint (known as Heberden's node) are a common feature of OA in the hands.
The most commonly involved joints are those near the ends of the fingers, at the base of the thumb, neck, lower back, knees, and hips. Joints on one side of the body are often more affected than those on the other. Usually the problems come on over years. It can affect work and normal daily activities.
