<bot>: Hello! Thank you for writing! Spasm is normal in osteoarthritis. General tips are: If you are overweight it is important to lose weight. Physical therapy with programmed exercises is very good. You can do walking, swimming. You can use painkillers for the pain but not for a prolonged time. And injection in the joint of corticosteroids that can make better the symptoms. For any other question you can consult a rheumatologist. Wish you good health. Best regards.
