Summary

Osteoarthritis (OA) is one of the most common forms of degenerative joint disease and a major cause of pain and disability affecting the aging population. It is a significant burden in terms of cost as well as the health of society and individuals. Here in our study we will try to evaluate a novel therapeutic method by using topical copper-albumin complexes cream in treatment of osteoarthritis. Then all the biochemical changes will be measured beside the evaluation of topical copper-albumin complexes cream effectiveness in relieving symptoms of the OA.
