Joint Diseases

Joint Diseases

Joint Diseases encompass a broad spectrum of conditions affecting the structures within and around joints, leading to pain, inflammation, and functional impairment. Arthritis, a common joint disease, includes osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and juvenile idiopathic arthritis, among others. Osteoarthritis involves the degeneration of joint cartilage, while rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disorder causing inflammation. Juvenile idiopathic arthritis affects children.
Other joint diseases include gout, characterized by the deposition of uric acid crystals, and ankylosing spondylitis, involving inflammation of the spine. Infectious arthritis results from microbial infections in the joint, leading to swelling and pain. Traumatic injuries like fractures, dislocations, and ligament tears also affect joints. Degenerative joint diseases often accompany aging, impacting joint function. Diagnosis involves clinical evaluation, imaging, and laboratory tests. Treatment may include medications, physical therapy, and, in severe cases, surgical intervention like joint replacement. Management aims to alleviate symptoms, improve function, and slow disease progression, enhancing the quality of life for individuals affected by joint diseases.
