Arthritis and degenerative conditions pose significant challenges to musculoskeletal health, affecting millions worldwide with progressive joint deterioration and chronic pain. Osteoarthritis, the most prevalent form, results from cartilage breakdown, leading to stiffness, inflammation, and reduced mobility. Rheumatoid arthritis, an autoimmune disorder, triggers systemic inflammation that damages joints and surrounding tissues. Emerging treatments, including biologic therapies, platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections, and stem cell-based regenerative approaches, are revolutionizing disease management by targeting inflammation and promoting tissue repair. Additionally, advancements in minimally invasive joint preservation techniques, such as osteotomies and cartilage resurfacing, are delaying the need for total joint replacements. Lifestyle interventions, including weight management, structured physical therapy, and anti-inflammatory nutrition, are also proving vital in slowing disease progression. As research continues to evolve, the integration of precision medicine and innovative therapies is offering new hope for improving mobility and quality of life in individuals with arthritis and degenerative conditions.
