Joint pain

What is Joint Pain?

Joint pain refers to discomfort, aches, and soreness in any of the body's joints. Joints are points where two or more bones meet, such as in the knees, hips, shoulders, or fingers. Joint pain can range from mild to severe, and can be caused by a variety of conditions.

Some common causes of joint pain include:

• Arthritis: Inflammation of the joints from conditions like osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis. This causes breakdown of cartilage and bone rubbung.


• Injuries: Sprains, fractures, or dislocations of joints from accidents or sports injuries.


• Overuse: Repeated movements or overexertion that strains the joints. This is common in athletes and manual laborers.


• Autoimmune diseases: Diseases like lupus or rheumatoid arthritis cause joint inflammation.


• Infection: Viruses or bacteria can infect joints and fluid, causing inflammation.


• Medication side effects: Some medications list joint pain as a potential side effect.

Joint pain symptoms can include:

• Stiffness after rest or upon waking


• Swelling and redness around joints


• Difficulty moving joints through full range of motion


• Tenderness when pressure is applied


• A cracking or grating sensation with movement

Treating joint pain depends on the underlying cause. Common treatments can include rest, ice/heat application, over-the-counter pain medication, joint braces or splints, physical therapy, and weight loss to reduce pressure on joints. If autoimmune or inflammatory arthritis is the cause, disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs may be prescribed.
