Many veterans wait years until after discharge to file a claim for osteoarthritis. Most veterans' osteoarthritis worsens over time. When a veteran is young they may not notice the wear and tear on the joints in their hands, knees, hips, and spine. Veterans are likely to develop osteoarthritis as they age and may notice symptoms of osteoarthritis later in life.

Osteoarthritis is going to come into play whenever you have joint pain, knee pain, some back injuries, or other functional loss due to pain. It does not always show up on an X-ray or an MRI, but during your Compensation and Pension Exam, the doctor will be watching your face when you bend your elbow. If you wince or grunt from the pain, the VA doctor is required to make a note of it. That is how a lot of the VA percentage for osteoarthritis works. Whatever pain they see in you when you bend your knee or elbow is defined as your “range of motion.” That is important because that is exactly how the VA will assign your veterans disability rating.
