Joint Pain, Hip & Knee Osteoarthritis Treatment at AMI Clinic Bedford

Arthritis is a common condition that causes joint pain and inflammation within a joint. A common misconception is that arthritis is due to age. Naturally with age our bodies do wear, however arthritis it is not age dependent process, nor is it reversible. But there are a number of treatments available that can help ease and manage the symptoms associated with the joint pain.
 
The most common form of arthritis is osteoarthritis, and this generally occurs due poor lifestyle habits. This is a form of arthritis is where the cartilage between the bones gradually ‘wears’ away, leading to ‘bone on bone’ and changes within the joint structure.
 
The most frequently affected joints are in the hands, spine, knees and hips. The symptoms of osteoarthritis vary greatly from person to person, and between different affected joints.


Common symptoms of osteoarthritis include:

  • Joint pain, tenderness and stiffness
  • Inflammation in and around the joint
  • Restricted movement of the joints
  • Warmth and redness of the skin over the affected joint
  • Weakness and muscle wasting
