Orthopaedic Traumatology and Physical Medicine Rehabilitation.

Pain varies widely in terms of severity, from a deep ache to a sharp or burning sensation in one or multiple joints or areas in the body. In some cases, the joint pain is associated with a variety of other symptoms such as nerve pain and tingling sensation or loss of sensation as well as joint stiffness or swelling, red and warm skin, and limited range of motion.

Many people living with daily joint pain mask their discomfort by taking daily pain medication and limiting their physical activity, both of which can be detrimental to one’s health. This often continues until the pain becomes unbearable and leads to more disability. At this point most people will seek professional help, but it doesn’t have to be that way. There are many effective treatment options that can provide relief early on without the need for daily medications. There are many causes of joint pain, which translate to different treatment options depending on the cause, including minimally invasive techniques.
