Persistent joint pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility can make everyday activities such as walking, climbing stairs, or even getting out of a chair difficult. One of the most common causes of these symptoms is osteoarthritis, a degenerative joint condition that gradually wears down the protective cartilage within the joints.
At Bombay Hospital Jaipur, we provide comprehensive Osteoarthritis Treatment in Jaipur with a personalised approach tailored to each patient's condition, lifestyle, and treatment goals. Our experienced orthopaedic specialists focus on relieving pain, improving joint function, and helping patients maintain an active and independent lifestyle through evidence-based treatment options.
Whether you are experiencing early symptoms or advanced joint degeneration, our multidisciplinary team offers comprehensive evaluation, non-surgical management, rehabilitation, and advanced joint replacement surgery when required.

Osteoarthritis is the most common form of arthritis and occurs when the smooth cartilage that cushions the ends of bones gradually wears away. As the cartilage deteriorates, the bones begin to rub against each other, leading to pain, stiffness, swelling, and reduced joint movement.
Although osteoarthritis is more common with ageing, it can also develop due to previous injuries, obesity, repetitive joint stress, or genetic factors.
The condition most frequently affects weight-bearing joints such as the knees and hips, but it can also involve the shoulders, hands, spine, and ankles.
While osteoarthritis cannot be completely reversed, early diagnosis and appropriate treatment can help manage symptoms, improve mobility, and slow disease progression.
Several factors can increase the risk of developing osteoarthritis.
These include:
Understanding these risk factors helps guide preventive measures and personalised treatment.
Symptoms usually develop gradually and may worsen over time.
Common symptoms include:
If these symptoms persist or interfere with daily life, an orthopaedic evaluation is recommended.
Osteoarthritis can affect almost any joint, but it most commonly involves:
Knee
The knees bear much of the body's weight, making them one of the most frequently affected joints.
Hip
Hip osteoarthritis can cause pain in the groin, thigh, or buttock and may limit walking and daily activities.
Shoulder
Degeneration of the shoulder joint can lead to pain, stiffness, and difficulty lifting the arm.
Hands
Small joints in the fingers and thumb may become painful, swollen, and less flexible.
Spine
Osteoarthritis affecting the spine may cause neck or back pain along with stiffness.
Ankle
Previous injuries or long-term wear can contribute to osteoarthritis in the ankle joint.
A thorough evaluation helps determine the severity of joint damage and identify the most appropriate treatment plan.
Your orthopaedic specialist may recommend:
Accurate diagnosis allows treatment to be tailored to your symptoms, activity level, and overall health.
Treatment depends on the severity of arthritis, the affected joint, your age, activity level, and overall health.
Lifestyle Modifications
Simple lifestyle changes can help reduce stress on the joints and improve long-term joint health.
These may include:
Medications
Your doctor may prescribe medications to help relieve pain and reduce inflammation when appropriate.
Physiotherapy
A structured physiotherapy programme can improve flexibility, strengthen muscles around the joint, improve balance, and enhance mobility.
Biological & Regenerative Therapies
For selected patients with early to moderate osteoarthritis, biological and regenerative therapies may help relieve pain, improve joint function, and delay the need for surgery. Based on your condition, our orthopaedic specialists may recommend:
These treatments are recommended after a thorough clinical evaluation and are tailored to each patient's symptoms, the affected joint, and the stage of osteoarthritis.
Assistive Devices
Walking aids, braces, or supportive footwear may reduce joint stress and improve daily function.
Injection-Based Treatments
Depending on your condition, your orthopaedic specialist may recommend:
Surgical Treatment
When conservative treatments no longer provide adequate relief, surgery may be considered.
Depending on the affected joint and severity of arthritis, surgical options may include:
Our specialists recommend surgery only when it is the most appropriate option to improve quality of life and restore mobility.
