Hands knitting affected by osteoarthritis

Osteoarthritis. Elderly woman's hands use knitting needles whilst affected by osteoarthritis and showing Heberden's nodes. Osteoarthritis is a common form of arthritis resulting from wear and tear on joints. It is a disease of joint cartilage, associated with secondary changes in underlying bone which may be painful and ultimately impairs and deforms the function of the affected joint.

Treatment includes anti- inflammatory drugs or surgery in severe cases
