Osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic disease that affects the joints. It is also called degenerative arthritis because it is related to old age. In this case, cartilage (soft cover of bone) located in the joints starts to be damaged over time.
A recent new study has shown that hearing some kind of ‘cribitus’ (sounding, rampage or licking) in the knees may be a sign of osteoarthritis. The study also found that most of the people who later had osteoarthritis heard voices in their knees, but did not experience pain in the early stages.
Symptoms of osteoarthritis
Common symptoms of osteoarthritis include mild to severe pain, swelling and stiffness in joints. In the early stages, the pain usually occurs after physical activity and relieves after resting. But as the disease increases, pain may be felt even after resting. In addition, the sound of weakness and sometimes extremity or staggering is heard in the joints.
Why do you hear the sounds of the joints?
The sound of cribitus or ‘crisp’ in the knee is then born. When the cartilage of the knee slowly breaks down and the bones start rubbing together. This voice is usually painless, but it can be a sign of developing osteoarthritis in the future.
