Consequences of lack of treatment

Osteoarthritis is a popular disease for people over 46 years old. According to statistics, every sixth person can "boast" of this ailment. It is only necessary to stretch out a little with treatment and the result may be an endoprosthesis, which hides an operation to replace the affected joint with an artificial one. And everything would be fine, but this operation is quite expensive and entails a long rehabilitation process. Like any other serious disease, osteoarthritis requires a serious approach. There can be no question of any independent treatment. After all, sometimes even professionals can make mistakes. Therefore, it is best not to trust folk medicine, but immediately go to a specialist.
