There was a prosperous period when our ancestors did not ever go through any chronic pain or other discomfort in their life span. An argument for a healthy discussion could be fair because their diet was exceptional. They ate healthy meals and most importantly had a great lifestyle that allowed them to move more often and burn the fat simultaneously. As a result, their postures and general health were intact. However, today, millions of people regardless of a good lifestyle are seemingly struggling with various health conditions including Joint Pain And Arthritis in Dubai, Abu Dhabi & Sharjah.
What Are The Different Types Of Arthritis?
- Osteoarthritis: this occurs after a certain age, usually at the age of 60 and above. What happens is that, when your protective cartilage cushion breaks down or becomes weakened over the period, it leads to pain and stiffness in the joint areas.
- Rheumatoid: it is a disorder that takes place when the immune system is attacked or the lining of the membrane is damaged around the joints. As a result, the circumstances trigger throbbing pain, discomfort, or swelling in particular.

The problem may be aroused due to poor posture or lack of movement. However, it will lead to the fusion of vertebrae if the problem is left untreated.

What Causes Joint Pain?
Various factors lead to undesired circumstances. Some of the common contributing factors are mentioned below;
- Your age; is a natural process and leading factor to activate the undesired experience that takes place over time.
- Genetics; oftentimes, can trigger early forms of arthritis in weaker patients or those who do not fuel their bodies with adequate or essential nutrients.
- Auto-immune Disorder; can trigger a negative outcome. This often occurs when the system mistakenly begins to target internal tissues and feed off the collagen. As a result, rheumatoid arthritis takes over and causes a downfall of joint health.
- Infections; can also lead to reactive arthritis as if it responds to joint activity. As a result, internal inflammation, liquid fluid discharge, or inflammation can lead to autoimmune and cause massive pain.
- Lifestyle; can also serve as an impactful factor, especially in obese patients. Additionally, if the patient lacks physical activities and general fitness for being in good shape, the development and progression of joint pain and arthritis can take control of bone health and create negative outcomes.
What Are The Signs And Symptoms?
The early indications can vary from person to person. However, the common discomfort is usually tracked according to persistent or intermittent pain in the joints. Similarly, swelling and inflammation are early symptoms of the problem. Moreover, stiffness or reduced flexibility in the muscles is another signalizing sign of the affected joints. We often mark fatigue and deformities in several cases to be a clear indication of rheumatoid arthritis.

Canes and walkers are examples of assistive supports that improve daily tasks by protecting joints.

- A Healthy Diet; plays a vital role in maintaining your overall fitness and general health. Having a great portion of essential vitamins, calcium, protein, and other important nutrients will restore your energy and fuel your body with cell repairing and stronger immunity boosters.
- Assistive Devices; we provide braces, splints, or other assistive devices to our patients who require additional support when moving around. These can help with affected joints as the pressure is not fully forced on the affected joints.
