View of knees affected by osteoarthritis
Osteoarthritis. View of the swollen knees of a patient with osteoarthritis. The knees have become deformed, causing the legs to curve outwards at the joint. Osteoarthritis is a joint disorder usually caused by mechanical wear and tear of the affected joint. The joint loses its smooth cartilage lining and the bones in the joint rub against each other, causing pain, swelling, stiffness and deformity. Osteoarthritis commonly affects the joints in the hand, and may lead to disfigurement and loss of grip. Treatment is mainly aimed at reducing symptoms with painkillers and anti-inflammatory drugs

EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful print captures the debilitating effects of osteoarthritis on a patient's knees. The image showcases the swollen and deformed knees, causing the legs to curve outwards at the joint. Osteoarthritis is a joint disorder that commonly occurs due to mechanical wear and tear, resulting in the loss of smooth cartilage lining within the affected joint. As a consequence, bones within the joint rub against each other, leading to excruciating pain, swelling, stiffness, and deformity. This condition not only affects mobility but also causes disfigurement and loss of grip in some cases. The photograph serves as a reminder of how osteoarthritis can significantly impact an individual's quality of life. However, it also highlights the importance of medical intervention for symptom management. Treatment primarily focuses on alleviating pain through painkillers and anti-inflammatory drugs. Science Photo Library presents this image as part of its extensive collection dedicated to showcasing various diseases, conditions, joints disorders such as arthritis or musculoskeletal disorders like osteoarthritis. It aims to provide valuable visual resources for healthcare professionals seeking educational materials or individuals interested in understanding these medical conditions better.
