Knee osteoarthritis related disability is high in the elderly population. Patients feel difficulty in walking/ jogging, an important and easy option to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease. Stiffness, pain, other knee related symptoms may limit the patients' functional status and recreational activities. Thus, these individuals suffer from progressive impact on their activities of daily living and leads to loss in leisure, social life, sleeping quality and thus decrease in their quality of life. Worse QoL in patients with knee OA is also associated with severity of clinical manifestations and radiographic features. The QoL of knee OA patients was found to be significantly poorer than QoL compared to healthy patients (Non-OA patients).
