About 20 percent of military officers who sustain a knee injury will develop OA before age 30, according to research conducted in part by the UNC Thurston Arthritis Research Center.\u00a0 Members of the military and young, physically active populations are at a higher risk for knee injuries, which are a major risk factor for OA.<\/p>\n
