As cartilage wears away, bones may rub against each other, causing pain, swelling, stiffness, and loss of motion. Unlike inflammatory arthritis such as rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis is primarily mechanical in nature, though inflammation plays a significant role.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ae50cd5 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"ae50cd5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Osteoarthritis can affect any joint but most commonly occurs in the knees and shoulders.
