How long does it take to get osteoarthritis?


I am only 23 but I have had a knee injury since a year ago off and on and now I am experiencing osteoarthritis symptoms. (stiffness in the knee joint in the morning followed by pain of and on during the day) Could these symptoms be caused by something else or do I have arthritis already?

Go to www.medicinenet.com. One of the founders is a great Rheumatologist. The section on arthritis is especially good.

Maybe someone else will know how long, but I do know that you can build your bones until you at least 50. After that you can only maintain what you have.
