A member asked:

I was dx with uctd and cervical osteoarthritis at age 21. is the oa related to uctd? how could i possibly get the oa at a young age?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Question: Osteoarthritis is not related to UCTD. I question the validity of a diagnosis of osteoarthritis at such a young age unless the osteoarthritis is post-traumatic. You may want a second opinion.
