The increasing cases of osteoarthritis among youngsters can be attributed to modern lifestyle factors, including sedentary jobs, poor posture, lack of exercise, and obesity. Prolonged sitting, inadequate physical activity, and unhealthy eating habits are taking a toll on joints, leading to joint pain and osteoarthritis. With the rise of desk jobs and digital addiction, it's essential to incorporate regular exercise and maintain a healthy weight to prevent osteoarthritis and joint pain. By making small changes to daily habits, youngsters can reduce their risk of developing osteoarthritis and improve overall joint health, thereby avoiding the dreaded 'jodo ka dard' or joint pain. Early intervention is key to preventing long-term damage.
