used hand-in-hand with
Osteoarthritis¹³

A Traumatic Event

Sometimes knee Osteoarthritis starts as a result of a traumatic event.

Damage to the knee joint during an accident can start or bring on Osteoarthritis some time after the event.¹³ Or damage to the surrounding bone or soft tissues can affect the knee joint indirectly by causing different pressure or strain on the joint and its tissues, which might in turn cause Osteoarthritis.^17,19
