- If the cartilage becomes damaged by disease or injury, the tissues around the joint become inflamed, causing pain. (vikasvedi.co.uk)
- What happens in the degenerative form is that the cartilage becomes stiff, so its flexibility decreases and increases its chances of being damaged, as the articular cartilage plays a shock absorbing role, which gradually erodes in the knee joint, and thus the damaged cartilage and ligaments become taut, which causes pain and eventually leads to the bones touching the knee joint to each other.
