Understanding Joint Pain and Arthritis:

Joint pain can arise from various conditions, including:

  • Osteoarthritis: The most common type of arthritis, it causes the breakdown of the cartilage cushioning your joints.
  • Rheumatoid arthritis: An autoimmune disease that inflames the lining of your joints.
  • Gout: Sudden and severe attacks of pain caused by the buildup of uric acid crystals in the joints.
  • Bursitis: Inflammation of the fluid-filled sacs cushioning your joints.
  • Tendonitis: Inflammation of the tendons connecting muscles to bones.

Symptoms of Joint Pain and Arthritis:

Common symptoms of joint pain and arthritis include:

  • Pain: Aching, stiffness, or sharp pain in the affected joint.
  • Stiffness: Difficulty moving the joint, especially in the mornings.
  • Swelling: Inflammation and redness around the joint.
  • Decreased range of motion: Inability to bend or straighten the joint fully.
  • Weakness: Loss of muscle strength around the affected joint.

Diagnosis at Medace Clinic:

Our team will conduct a thorough evaluation to diagnose the cause of your joint pain. This may involve:

  • Detailed medical history: Discussing your symptoms, medical history, and lifestyle habits.
  • Physical examination: Assessing your joints for pain, swelling, tenderness, and range of motion.
  • Imaging tests: X-rays, ultrasounds, or MRIs may be used to visualize the joint and surrounding structures.
