Dear Sir, Your age seems to be less for a primary osteoarthritis, i suspect who have given you this diagnosis, at your age having joint pains, warrants investigations, as inflammatory arthritis, is common during this period, and they only have a good prognosis if diagnosed early.
Next Steps
Consult an Orthopaedician, and get yourself investigated.
