Joint Stiffness and Osteoarthritis

I have joints that are stiff in the morning and that make grinding sounds, but I do not feel pain. Do I have osteoarthritis?

Not everyone with osteoarthritis feels pain. Only one-third of people with signs of osteoarthritis in their X-rays report pain or other symptoms.

To learn more about the signs and symptoms of osteoarthritis, go to Learn More: Osteoarthritis.
