What Is Arthritis?
Arthritis is a chronic condition that causes joint inflammation and pain. The most common type, osteoarthritis, develops from natural wear and tear as cartilage breaks down, leading to bone-on-bone friction. But arthritis is not just one condition—our clinic treats a wide range of forms, including:
- Osteoarthritis – Age- or wear-related joint degeneration
- Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) – Autoimmune condition attacking joint linings
- Gout – Caused by uric acid crystal build-up, often in the feet
- Psoriatic Arthritis – Linked with psoriasis
- Septic Arthritis – Infection-related joint inflammation
- Lupus-related Arthritis – Joint pain caused by systemic autoimmune disease
