Osteoarthritis
Osteoarthritis, commonly known as wear-and-tear arthritis, it's a condition in which the natural cushioning between joints – cartilage – wears away. When this happens, the bones of the joints rub more closely against one another with less of the shock-absorbing benefits of cartilage. The rubbing results in pain, swelling, stiffness, decreased ability to move and, sometimes, the formation of bone spurs.
The most common cause of osteoarthritis of the knee is age. Almost everyone will eventually develop some degree of osteoarthritis.
Many patients suffer from osteoarthritis was treated by natural supplement, medication, or surgery. While, Laser therapy is a promising therapeutic approach for osteoarthritis, it relies on the transfer of energy from incident photons to a cell photoacceptor to accelerate the soft tissues repair and regenerate, anti-inflammation, relieve the pain. Below is the osteoarthritis case which was treated by Dr Aqsa in Pakistan.
