Shoulder Arthritis
The humerus attaches to our shoulder blade to form the glenohumeral joint. There is cartilage in
between these two structures. Cartilage gradual degenerates over time. This can cause shoulder
pain aggravated by using the arm or sleeping on it.
Hand Arthritis
There are many small joints in the hand and wrist that can develop pain due to osteoarthritis.
Joint pain, swelling, and stiffness are common symptoms associated with osteoarthritis of the
hands.
Meniscus Tears
The meniscus are C-shaped fibrocartilage structures that help to absorb stress on the knee. They are prone to injury. Injury can cause pain, swelling, and instability in the knee.
Foot Arthritis:
There are many small joints in the foot and ankle that can develop pain due to osteoarthritis.
Joint pain, swelling, and stiffness are common symptoms associated with osteoarthritis.
Knee Osteoarthritis

Many factors contribute to cartilage breakdown. Symptoms of knee arthritis include joint swelling, stiffness, pain, instability, and limited range of motion.
Labrum
