The symptomatic course of foot osteoarthritis phenotypes: an 18 ‐month prospective analysis of community‐dwelling older adults
ConclusionThree foot OA phenotypes showed few descriptive or symptomatic changes over 18 months.

Longer‐term follow‐up using additional time‐points is required to describe further the natural history of foot OA.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.
