WHAT IS JOINT PAIN?
Joint pain is a common issue that can affect the knees, shoulders, hips, spine and any other joint in the body.
This discomfort may be constant or come and go, often accompanied by sensations like throbbing or a grinding feeling. Many people experience stiffness and aching in the morning that tends to improve with movement—although too much activity can actually make the pain worse.
Because joint pain is often a chronic condition, leaving it untreated can reduce joint function, limit your ability to carry out everyday activities, and significantly impact your quality of life. That’s why addressing joint pain through proper therapy is essential for maintaining mobility, comfort, and overall well-being.

CAUSES OF JOINT PAIN
Parsippany, NJ
The most prevalent causes of joint pain in the US are gout and arthritis. Approximately 15 million individuals report severe joint pain due to arthritis, and half experience persistent joint pain. Other conditions that may result in painful joints are:
Osteoarthritis is a wear & tear disease called degenerative joint disease. In this condition, the joint’s cartilage breaks down. It changes the underlying bone causing the formation of bony growths and thickening of the bone ends.
Rheumatoid arthritis is a condition that can be described as an autoimmune disease that causes severe joint pain and stiffness. It occurs when the body begins to attack its tissue.
Meniscal Tears: The meniscus is a structure within the joint that provides cushioning and shock absorption. It can become damaged due to degeneration or injury, often leading to pain, swelling, and limited mobility.
Tendinosis (aka Tendinitis) - Is typically degeneration and fraying of the tendon with rare inflammation. Tendons are flexible and strong tissue that connects the muscles to the bones. This issue can result from overuse.
Other causes include joint sprain and strain, joint infection, and sports injuries.
