Arthritis Pain Relief

Arthritis is a common condition that causes inflammation and stiffness in the joints, leading to pain and reduced mobility. It can affect people of all ages, though it is more common as we get older. With the right physical therapy approach, arthritis pain can be effectively managed, helping you stay active and maintain your independence.

Causes of Arthritis Pain

Arthritis pain can develop due to:

*Wear and tear of joint cartilage (osteoarthritis)

*Autoimmune disorders where the body attacks joint tissues (rheumatoid arthritis)

*Joint injuries or previous trauma

*Repetitive stress on joints

*Age-related degeneration

*Genetic factors

*Inflammation within the joint lining

Over time, these factors can lead to joint stiffness, swelling, and discomfort that worsens with activity or prolonged inactivity.

Symptoms

Common symptoms of arthritis include:

*Joint pain and tenderness

*Stiffness, especially in the morning

*Swelling around the joint

*Reduced range of motion

*Clicking or grinding sensations in the joint

*Weakness in surrounding muscles

Symptoms may vary depending on the type and severity of arthritis.
