Osteoarthritis is a common condition that affects millions of people worldwide. It is a type of arthritis that occurs when the protective cartilage on the ends of bones wears down, causing pain, stiffness, and swelling. If you’re experiencing any of the following symptoms, you may be suffering from osteoarthritis:

  • Pain and stiffness in the affected joint, especially after prolonged periods of inactivity
  • Swelling in the affected joint
  • Limited range of motion in the affected joint
  • A crunching or grinding sound when you use the affected joint
  • Bone spurs that may develop around the affected joint

Fortunately, there are several treatments available for osteoarthritis, both surgical and non-surgical. Here are a few tips that can help you manage the symptoms of osteoarthritis:

  • Exercise regularly to help improve your joint mobility and reduce stiffness.
  • Maintain a healthy weight to reduce stress on your joints.
  • Use heat or ice therapy to relieve pain and swelling in the affected joint.
  • Consider using assistive devices, such as canes or braces, to help reduce stress on the affected joint.
