Arthritis and pain management involves the diagnosis, treatment, and management of arthritis—a condition characterized by inflammation and stiffness of the joints. Treatment strategies focus on reducing pain and inflammation, preserving joint function, and preventing further disability. Options typically include medication, physical therapy, lifestyle adjustments, and, in severe cases, surgical interventions.
Arthritis is a medical condition marked by the inflammation of one or more joints, leading to pain, swelling, stiffness, and decreased range of motion. Common types include osteoarthritis, which results from wear and tear over time, and rheumatoid arthritis, an autoimmune disease causing inflammation of the joint lining.
