The knee joint is formed by the lower end of the thigh bone (femur) and the upper end of the shin bone (tibia). The knee cap (patella) sits in the tendon of the quadriceps muscle, which is connected to the tibia by the patella tendon. It forms a third joint with the femur. Arthritis is a degenerative condition of the cartilage on the surface of a joint. The cartilage normally provides a low friction, impact resistant, bearing that contributes to efficient pain free stability in posture and locomotion. High pressure or repetitive loading can damage cartilage, like any other tissue or material.
