Possibly due to Osteoarthritic changes

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for your query.

They could be possibly due to Osteoarthritic changes .
Xrays of the involved joints will show up the severity of the arthritic (wear & tear) changes in the joints.

I encourage you to consult an orthopedician for physical examination, evaluation and management according to that.

I do hope that you have found something helpful and I will be glad to answer any further query.

Take care
