Arthritis is a condition that causes inflammation and stiffness in the joints, leading to pain and reduced mobility. It can affect people of all ages, with osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis being the most common types. Symptoms include joint pain, swelling, stiffness, and difficulty in movement, which often worsen with age. The time taken for treatment varies depending on the severity, ranging from weeks to months, with long-term management required in chronic cases. Seeking treatment from a specialist, such as those at The Orthopaedic Centre, can provide relief through medications, physical therapy, lifestyle modifications, or in severe cases, surgical intervention. The benefits of proper treatment include pain reduction, improved joint function, enhanced mobility, and a better quality of life. Early diagnosis and expert care can help patients manage symptoms effectively and prevent further joint damage, allowing them to maintain an active lifestyle with minimal discomfort.
