A member asked:
Is it ever too early to be suffering from degenerative joint disease in knees?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maybe not: Don't know how old you are but early injuries sustained in trauma/accidents over time can lead to degeneration of the joints. If you are still under 25 then you need to look for other problems. Keep your joints limber with exercise, stretching, eating well and lots of water.
