Pain Relief : Pain Relief FAQs

You probably know someone with arthritis. Arthritis—which means joint inflammation—affects 43 million people, about one in every six Americans. You might be surprised to know that arthritis doesn't affect only older people; more than half of people with arthritis are under age 65.

The three major symptoms of arthritis are joint pain, inflammation, and stiffness. Do these symptoms sound familiar? Do you think you might have arthritis? Your doctor can help you sort out the possibilities and make choices regarding your next step. Early intervention can help you receive the right diagnosis and begin treatment so you can start getting relief from arthritis symptoms sooner.

The two most common types of arthritis are osteoarthritis (OA) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA). These forms of arthritis are part of a group of more than 100 diseases called rheumatic disorders.

Think of "intervention" as taking action that "interferes" with the pain, inflammation, and stiffness of arthritis. As soon as you begin to notice that occasional discomfort has turned into persistent pain, you should see your doctor. Early intervention can help ensure that you receive the right diagnosis. Depending on the type of arthritis you have, you may be able to begin a treatment regimen that may help relieve symptoms sooner.

Many doctors now recommend aggressive early treatment for rheumatoid arthritis
Over the past several years, medical opinion has changed regarding when to start treatment for rheumatoid arthritis (RA). We now know that joint damage occurs very early—within two years—in many people with RA. And we've learned that early intervention with the appropriate medicine such as a disease-modifying antirheumatic drug can slow the development of irreversible joint damage. This means that preventing joint damage is now an important and realistic goal in the treatment of RA.

The key to successful treatment of osteoarthritis is a proper diagnosis
There is no medication yet that can stop the course of osteoarthritis (OA). But you and your doctor can find a treatment regimen that will help control the pain, inflammation, and stiffness in your joints. This will help keep your joints functioning.

If the affected joint hurts worse after being used—perhaps at the end of the day—your doctor or physical therapist may offer suggestions for reducing the workload on that particular joint, in addition to treating you with medication. Your therapy might include starting an exercise regimen to strengthen the muscles supporting that joint.
