What is Arthritis?

Arthritis is a condition that causes inflammation, pain, and stiffness in one or more joints. It can affect people of all ages but is more common in older adults. The most common types include osteoarthritis, which results from wear and tear of joint cartilage, and rheumatoid arthritis, an autoimmune condition where the immune system attacks joint tissues. Symptoms often include joint pain, swelling, reduced range of motion, and stiffness, especially in the morning. Arthritis can impact daily activities and overall quality of life. Proper management through physiotherapy, medication, exercise, and lifestyle changes can help reduce symptoms and maintain joint function.

What are The Causes of Low Back Pain?

Age-Related Wear and Tear

Over time, the protective cartilage in joints can break down, leading to pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility.

Autoimmune Conditions

In some types, like rheumatoid arthritis, the immune system attacks healthy joint tissues, causing inflammation and damage.

Injury or Joint Stress

Previous injuries or repetitive stress on joints can increase the risk of developing arthritis later in life.
