Arthritis FAQs

What causes arthritis pain?

Arthritis pain can develop when the cartilage that cushions a joint wears down or when inflammation affects the joint tissues. Age, previous injuries, genetics, and repetitive stress on the joints can all contribute to arthritis symptoms.

How is arthritis pain diagnosed?

Diagnosis typically begins with a physical examination and a review of your symptoms and medical history. Imaging studies such as X-rays, CT scans, or MRI scans may be used to evaluate joint changes and help identify the source of pain.

When should I seek treatment for arthritis pain?

You should consider seeking treatment if arthritis pain is interfering with daily activities, limiting your mobility, disrupting sleep, or becoming more frequent or severe over time.

Is arthritis pain permanent?

While arthritis is often a chronic condition, many people are able to successfully manage their symptoms and maintain an active lifestyle with the right treatment plan.
