Very much so yes. Mine started when I was aged 32.

Babies can even be born with arthritis.

I mean, what's normal, eh? I got my dx of severe OA in both hips at 39, but it was obviously present long before that. I know a lot of people in their teens/20s who have OA due to issues from birth and/or sports. You might find this an interesting read: ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articl...

I have had it since i was 36.
