Experiencing Joint Pain? Know the Difference Between Osteoarthritis & Rheumatoid Arthritis 🦴

Joint pain and stiffness can disrupt your life, but did you know not all joint pain is the same? Understanding the root cause is the first step to effective relief. At NAVKAR CLINIC, DR M .NAVANEETH RAJ specializes in diagnosing and treating all types of joint conditions.

🔍 Osteoarthritis (OA): Caused by the natural "wear and tear" of cartilage. It typically affects adults over 45 and targets large, weight-bearing joints like the knees, hips, and lower back. 🩸 Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA): An autoimmune condition where the immune system attacks the joints. It can occur at any age (often 20-50 years) and usually affects smaller joints like the hands and wrists, causing significant morning stiffness.

When should you see a doctor? ✨ Persistent joint pain lasting > 2 weeks ✨ Morning stiffness lasting > 30 minutes ✨ Swelling, warmth, or redness in your joints ✨ Difficulty with daily activities like walking or gripping
