Arthritis: Causes, Symptoms, and What Really Helps

When your arthritis, a condition where joints become inflamed, stiff, and painful, often due to wear, autoimmunity, or injury. Also known as joint inflammation, it affects over 150 million people in India alone—many of them under 60. It’s not just "old age"—it can strike after an injury, because of weight, genetics, or even your diet. If you’ve ever woken up with stiff fingers, struggled to climb stairs, or felt a deep ache in your knees that doesn’t go away, you’re not alone.

osteoarthritis, the most common form, happens when the cartilage between bones breaks down over time—think of it like the cushion in your joints wearing thin. Then there’s rheumatoid arthritis, an autoimmune disease where your body attacks its own joints, causing swelling, fatigue, and sometimes damage to organs. These aren’t the same thing, but both lead to the same problem: pain that limits your life. And behind both is inflammation, the body’s overactive response that turns from healer to attacker. It’s not just in your joints—it’s in your blood, your sleep, even your mood.

Many people think rest is the answer, but movement often helps more. Weight loss, even 5-10% of your body weight, can cut knee pain in half. Some find relief with heat, others with cold. Supplements like glucosamine? Mixed results. Medications? They help some, but don’t fix the root. The real question isn’t just "what hurts?"—it’s "what’s causing the hurt?" That’s why the posts below don’t just list treatments. They show you what actually works for real people—how one man reversed his knee pain without surgery, why some arthritis meds make you gain weight, and what doctors don’t always tell you about steroids and supplements.

What you’ll find here isn’t theory. It’s what people in India are trying right now—whether it’s adjusting their diet, changing their daily routine, or understanding which meds are worth the side effects. No fluff. No hype. Just what matters when you’re trying to walk, bend, or sleep without pain.
