Occurrence of osteoarthritis increases not only with age of monitored individuals, but also an upward trend is observed both in the prevalence and incidence in the whole population. Pain in the hip and knee joints arise on a multi-factorial basis with genetic load. The pain can occur both during physical activity and at rest. The therapy is symptomatic with an effort to reduce degenerative processes and mainly to eliminate soreness. It is suitable to use a complex procedure at the GP's outpatient department. It is also possible to use NSAIDs, or recommend dietary supplements as well.
