MANAGEMENT OF OSTEOARTHRITIS OF KNEE THROUGH MAGNETIC RESONANCE THERAPY A CASE STUDY

Knee osteoarthritis (OA), also known as degenerative joint disease, is typically the result of wear and tear and progressive loss of articular cartilage. It is most common in the elderly. Knee osteoarthritis can be divided into two types, primary and secondary. Primary osteoarthritis is articular degeneration without any apparent underlying reason. Secondary osteoarthritis is the consequence of either an abnormal concentration of force across the joint as with post-traumatic causes or abnormal articular cartilage, such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA) etc. The prevalence of OA Knee is around 13% of women and 10% of men which is higher in women compared to men in there 60 years. In the present study, Magnetic Resonance Therapy is given to a subject who was suffering from Primary OA.
