After any serious joint damage you contribute to the chance of getting osteoarthritis.
"Osteoarthritis occurs when the cartilage that cushions the ends of bones in your joints deteriorates over time. The smooth surface of the cartilage becomes rough, causing irritation. Eventually, if the cartilage wears down completely, you may be left with bone rubbing on bone - causing the ends of your bones to become damaged and your joints to become painful."
