Erosive osteoarthritis is a specific form of osteoarthritis characterized by inflammatory changes in the joints, particularly affecting the distal interphalangeal joints of the fingers. It leads to erosions of the joint surfaces and can cause pain, swelling, and deformities. This condition is often associated with significant morning stiffness and can mimic rheumatoid Arthritis, though it generally has a distinct progression and treatment approach. Management typically involves pain relief and anti-inflammatory medications.
