Hi, I am a physical therapist and treat knee arthritis. Arthritis in general is inflammation of a joint. In the knee, generally the femur and at times the tiba becomes inflammed secondary to injury of the cartilage that lines the end of the bone.

arthritis means inflamation of a joint, strain in the knee could cause tears in the ligaments and tissues and cause inflamation. my answer is yes
There are various treatments that are recommended for arthritis in the knee. Precautionary treatments involve avoiding activities that put added strain on the knee such as jogging whilst still exercising the knee regularly to maintain muscle strength. Pain relief can be achieved by placing an ice pack on the knee and steroids and anti inflammatory medications can be used to improve the condition of the joint. It is possible to have surgery to replace the knee joint if the arthritis is very severe.
No the knee replacement only replaces the damaged joint however it may well have removed the affected area and the pain involved.
Degeneration means age-related arthritis. In this case, it's found in the knee joint.
That would be arthritis, more specifically osteoarthritis or degenerative joint disease.
Arthritis may develop from an auto-immune disorder, known as rheumatoid arthritis, or may be caused by the gradual wear and tear of the joint, known as osteoarthritis.
If a joint space is preserved, it means the space is normal and not showing signs of arthritis. In your case, the joint spaces in the knee were found to be normal.
