Mechanisms of Osteoarthritis (OA) Pain. [PDF]
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a major cause of pain and disability worldwide. There is, however, a relatively poor correlation between the severity of OA based on plain radiograph changes and symptoms. In this review, we consider the mechanisms of pain in OA.It is now widely recognised that OA is a disease of the whole joint.
