When there is inflammation in the subacromial bursa (a part of the shoulder joint), there is pain on elevation of the shoulder above the horizontal. This condition is variously called subacromial bursitis and shoulder impingement syndrome. If this condition is left untreated, eventually scar tissue will form in the shoulder joint. This scar tissue permanently restricts motion of the shoulder. This condition is called adhesive capsulitis, or frozen shoulder. Frozen shoulder is treated conservatively by physical therapy, but if that doesn't work the orthopedist has to do one of 2 things: violently wrench the shoulder to break up the scar tissue, or do surgery to go in and break up the scar tissue.
Hip Osteoarthritis (Arthritis of the hip) is a degenerative joint disease and is more likely to develop as people get older. This disease is typically characterized by pain and swelling of the hip joints. This can lead to problems walking and pain in seemingly unrelated areas, such as the the buttocks, thigh, knee and groin areas. The pain can come in various types including a dull ache and sharp pain, and the joint itself is usually rather stiff. For more information, WebMD provides some useful tips.

The most common is idiopathic arthritis, which nobody is sure of why it happens or caused. The second most common is rhumetoid arthritis.

Ringbone is the term used for osteoarthritis in horses, It is alsoreferred to as bony arthritis, of the pastern and/or coffin joints ringbone in the pastern joint is called high ringbone, and in the coffin joint is is referred to as low ringbone. Arthritis is any condition that causes inflammation of the joint. Osteoarthritis forms when the inflammation within the joint creates enough damage that the body lays down bone in an effort to heal the damaged tissue. This bony development development occurs at the joint surface or the attachment sites of the joint capsule to the bone. Another term to describe this type of damage to a joint is degenerative joint disease (DJD). The same sort of thing happens in humans after rheumatic inflammation
From what I see in your question, you're talking about the bones in your neck called cervical bones. For the #'s you gave, it would mean there's narrowing or lack of a gap between cervical #5 thru cervical #7. (5-6-7) That's most of the way up from the base of the neck on the backside. Narrowing of spaces where there's usually gaps is caused by wear & tear and aging usually and when the cushions between the bones are shrinking from wearing down or the aging process the consequence is narrowing. In this case on the left sides of C5 thru C7.
Osteoarthritis indicates damage to the cartilage in that knee. while message may feel good and give some relief it will not do anything to repair the cartilage that is at the root of the problem.
Answer 2: Unfortunately osteoarthritis has to do with the knee, bone and cartilage loss. Massage can only affect the muscles and surrounding tissue. It may help to massage this area if there is swelling and inflammation but that will not change the loss of cartilage in the knee. Severe osteoarthritis and loss of cartilage, bone on bone, is where doctors usually consider knee replacement surgery.
