Osteoarthritis of the knee results when cartilage- a strong, flexible connective

Osteoarthritis of the knee results when cartilage- a strong, flexible connective tissue that protects the joints and bones in the knee joint breaks down. Due to this, the knee joint bones rub together (wear & tear), causing stiffness and swelling in joints. It is a painful joint disorder and is more common in older adults.
