Asked by Male, 50 · 3 months ago
Arthritis is a group of conditions that cause inflammation in the joints, leading to pain, swelling, and stiffness. Common types include osteoarthritis (wear-and-tear of joints) and rheumatoid arthritis (an autoimmune condition). Treatment options include medications such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) or disease-modifying drugs to reduce pain and inflammation, physical therapy to improve joint mobility, and lifestyle changes like weight management and regular exercise. In severe cases, surgical options such as joint replacement may be necessary to restore joint function and improve quality of life.
