Humans do not have the same amount of cartilage in their bodies for their entire lives. Rather, as people age, the amount of cartilage in their body decreases. This can cause older people to experience joint pain.

Do you have the same amount of cartilage in your body all your life?

No, the amount of cartilage in your body changes over time. Cartilage is a type of connective tissue that can be worn down or damaged through aging, injury, or disease. Cartilage does not have a direct blood supply, which limits its ability to repair and regenerate compared to other tissues in the body. As a result, cartilage may decrease in volume and quality as a person ages.
