A member asked:
Does degenerative changes in the bilateral hips always mean that there is osteoarthritis present? or can it also mean age related conditions also exsist, thanks
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It means what it say: It is age related osteoarthritis.Osteoarthritis is age related and it shows as degenerative changes in the joint and bones of the hips and may show in other joints as well.The symptoms depend on the degree of changes and same is true about the treatment.
