What are the causes of osteoarthritis at an age of 36?

Please help me find out the causes of osteoarthritis that happened to my brother. How can it occur so early, I am surprised, when generally it is associated with old age? My brother is in good shape and keeps fit.

Can cartilage grow again? Over how many years? I know the growth is very slow.

Please tell me…
Thanks

There are many diseases that can cause secondary osteoarthritis,These are questions that will need to be answered by a doctor as each person,their body, and their reason for having arthritis are unique.
Go here to get more information on this condition. He will have testing and medication to help him deal with this, but first they must discover the reason for the condition in the first place. He should have a flurry of diagnostics in the next several weeks!

I would love to hear more info about this. My husband was just diagnosed with osteoarthritis, and he is only 35. Please keep me posted on anything your brother finds out. I am trying to read everything I can!
