What is wrist osteoarthritis?
(Wrist) osteoarthritis is a rheumatic disease of the posture and musculoskeletal system. This is a standalone condition, or it develops as a result of joint inflammation or weak ligaments. In osteoarthritis, humanity often thinks of wear and tear on joints or bones. "My joint is worn out" or "I have a worn out wrist" are often heard complaints from the doctor. This is not entirely correct. It is not a worn out joint, but a change in the joint has occurred.

This cartilage is a smooth tissue that ensures the 'smooth' movement of a joint. In (wrist) arthrosis, this cartilage is deformed; it has become thinner and softer. This causes the joints to move less easily, which is inherent to a painful and stiff feeling in the joints. In this case, the wrist joint.
