Overview

Arthritis is a term used to describe a group of long-term conditions that cause joint pain and inflammation. It is a very common condition, and it is estimated that it affects around 10 million people in the UK alone. Arthritis can cause significant pain, fatigue and stiffness, as well as limiting movement and ability to carry out daily activities. Treatment usually involves medication and lifestyle changes, such as exercise and weight management, to reduce symptoms. It is important to seek medical help if symptoms persist, as early diagnosis and intervention can help to slow the progression of the condition.
