Joints are the connection between two bones that allow you to turn your head, bend your elbows, do the shimmy, wiggle your hips and wave goodbye. The most common type of joint in your body is the synovial joint, which can be found in your knees and knuckles. Synovial joints allow for movement and they are filled with synovial fluid, which acts as a lubricant to protect the ends of the cartilage of your bones from rubbing against each other and wearing out.
What causes cartilage wear and tear?
- Ageing: As you age, your cartilage naturally thins and deteriorates.
- Poor posture: Posture misalignment causes undue stress on one area of the joint instead of distributing the pressure evenly.
- Wearing high-heels: High-heels place your legs in unnatural positions, which can prematurely damage your joints.
- Repetitive motions, like texting: Repeated small movements can overtax joints, especially in the hands.
- Soft mattresses: Lack of proper support can leave joints vulnerable while you sleep.
- Carrying heavy bags: Carrying heavy weight on the shoulders is a common source of joint pain. Typically, a purse and backpack should not weigh more than 5% and 10% of your body weight, respectively.
- Lack of strength training: When your muscles are weak, your body does not have enough strength to support your joints. Strength training helps to build the muscles and ligaments surrounding your joints, protecting them from damage.
- Overexertion during exercise: Sudden or intense physical activity can strain or damage joints, especially if surrounding muscles aren’t strong enough to absorb impact.
- Sitting for long periods: Holding the same sitting posture for long periods of time strains certain joints in your body. As a result, you may experience pain in the neck, hip joint, and knee.
- Excess weight: Carrying extra body weight increases stress on cartilage, damaging it over time.
