Arthritis
A Common Joint Condition
What is Arthritis?
Arthritis is a general term for conditions that cause joint pain and inflammation. Two common types of arthritis are:
Rheumatoid Arthritis
An autoimmune disease that causes inflammation in the joints, leading to pain, swelling, and stiffness.
Osteoarthritis
A degenerative joint disease that occurs when cartilage, the cushioning tissue between bones, breaks down.
Osteoarthritis and Spinal Health
Osteoarthritis can affect any joint in the body, including the spine. When it affects the spine, it’s often referred to as degenerative disc disease. This condition can cause:
Pain
Aching pain in the back, neck, or other affected areas.
Stiffness
Difficulty moving the affected joints, especially in the morning.
Reduced Range of Motion
Limited flexibility and mobility.
