KNEE OSTEOARTHRITIS PAIN CAUSES AND SOLUTIONS

Dec 14th 2019

What is osteoarthritis?

Osteoarthritis is known as the "wear and tear" type of arthritis. It is the breakdown of the cartilage that lines the joint. Since this cartilage acts as a cushion between the bones of the joints, when it is worn down the bones begin to interact with each other causing pain and inflammation.

What causes knee osteoarthritis?

There are many factors that can increase the risk of developing knee osteoarthritis including age, weight, gender, and a history of previous knee injuries.

What are the symptoms of knee osteoarthritis?

Early symptoms of knee osteoarthritis include stiffness in the joint, swelling, and pain that gets worse with activity but improves with rest. People often describe advanced knee osteoarthritis as “bone-on-bone” pain. Many people with advanced osteoarthritis will be eligible for joint replacement surgery. However, we have several knee braces that will help reduce swelling, relieve pain and restore mobility.

What is the best knee brace for osteoarthritis or bone-on-bone pain?

Knee braces can be used to alleviate the bone-on-bone pain associated with osteoarthritis, and are an important tool to use if you are not a good candidate for knee replacement surgery at this time. The best types of knee braces for osteoarthritis will provide overall joint stability and utilize compression to relieve pain and promote circulation. BioSkin knee braces are designed with medical-grade compression and lightweight hinges for support.

Testimonials

I recently bought a knee brace from Bioskin. The service was amazing. Kelly was pleasant, helpful, and very patient. She wanted to make sure I got the best brace that would work for me. She never made me feel rushed. She wasn't sure I had the best brace and she consulted with Angela. Angela was knowledgeable, informative, and also very patient. The brace was helpful, but unfortunately it was too tight after working all night. They exchanged it the following day without any hassle. I highly recommend Bioskin and would definitely use them again if needed.

Staff very helpful and we had to call a head to see what time they closed because we had drive across town and because it was almost 4pm we called them at 3:40pm and my daughter really needed a hand brace because she just found out she is a high risk pregnancy and has pregnancy induced carpal tunnel so she really needed a brace so we called and they said they closed at 4pm but because we had to drive there they stayed open till we got there and she was able to get her brace. THANK YOU FOR BEING SO HELPFUL AND KIND.

Went with wife for her bone-on-bone knee issues. Angela and Terri were incredibly knowledgeable, helpful and so nice. They identified two that best fit my wife's description of issues and after fitting them, she chose the one that was best for her. They stand behind their products...if you need a brace, this is the place.
