Arthritis is a common joint condition that causes inflammation, pain, stiffness, and reduced movement in the joints. It can affect people of all ages but is more commonly seen in older adults due to age-related wear and tear of the joints. Arthritis most frequently affects joints such as the knees, hips, hands, and spine.
This condition occurs when the protective cartilage that cushions the ends of bones gradually wears down, causing the bones to rub against each other. As a result, individuals may experience pain, swelling, stiffness, and difficulty performing everyday activities such as walking, climbing stairs, or lifting objects.
Orthopaedic specialists diagnose arthritis through physical examinations, medical history, and imaging tests such as X-rays or MRI scans. Early diagnosis helps in managing the condition effectively and preventing further joint damage.
• Persistent joint pain
• Swelling and inflammation around the joints
• Joint stiffness, especially in the morning
• Reduced range of motion
• Difficulty performing daily activities
Treatment for arthritis focuses on relieving pain, reducing inflammation, and improving joint function. Non-surgical treatments such as medication, physiotherapy, lifestyle modifications, and joint strengthening exercises are often recommended.
In severe cases where joint damage is significant and conservative treatments do not provide relief, surgical procedures such as joint replacement surgery may be recommended to restore mobility and improve quality of life.
