Osteoarthritis, commonly known as bone spurs and bone hyperplasia, is a group of diseases caused by damaged articular cartilage due to various reasons. Bones, like other tissues, are constantly undergoing metabolism. When entering middle-aged and elderly age, the aging rate is greater than the growth rate, osteoporosis occurs, and the strength of bones decreases. At this time, the body automatically compensates, making up for the decrease in quality with an increase in quantity, which is manifested in the obvious hyperplasia of weight-bearing joints. The knee joint is the heaviest burden and most frequently used joint in a person's body, so it is the least able to withstand the wear and tear of time and is prone to hyperplasia symptoms first.
