[ads shortcode=”td_responsive”]
The specific term for this form of arthritis is osteoarthritis: when the cartilage in joints that protects the bones wears down, causing inflammation. Among other things, this leads to joint aching and soreness when moving, stiffness after periods of rest, and joint swelling.
Arthritis is a problem mostly related to aging. But there are other factors like heredity, obesity, injuries, and joint overuse that may contribute to osteoarthritis. It can be treated with a combination of exercise, weight loss, medications, and physical therapy, depending on your age, occupation, and medical history. [ads shortcode=”td_responsive”]
