Conservative treatment of osteoarthritis of large joints
Patients suffering from degenerative-dystrophic diseases of the joints and spine occupy a significant place among those who seek help from doctors of various specialties. Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common form of joint pathology. It is characterized by primary damage (dystrophy) of articular cartilage, which subsequently leads to changes in the articular surfaces - the appearance of osteophytes and deformation of the joint.
