Description

Osteoarthritis is characterised by degenerative changes within the joint leading to wear and tear of joint and subsequent symptoms. Common sites that are affected are knee, hand, neck and back. If you have joint pains for more than 6 weeks which increases with activity and relieves after taking rest, you might have osteoarthritis. Osteoarthritis can be easily treated with analgesics, joint protective physiotherapy and intra articular therapy if detected in early stages. Early diagnosis and treatment may prevent joint damage due to the illness. Visit your Rheumatologist soon.
