When you have osteoarthritis, making even simple movements can be very painful. This condition can affect your back and other joints, which can interfere with your usual activities. If you have not been able to find relief for this condition from conventional treatments, our chiropractic doctor in NYC can help. At NuView Health Medical, we will create a treatment plan to help you manage pain from this chronic condition.

Causes of Osteoarthritis

Osteoarthritis develops when the cartilage in your joints becomes worn down, which allows the bones in your joint to grind against each other. These movements create friction that can lead to inflammation in the affected joints. Your risk of having this chronic condition is higher as you get older, especially if you have had joint injuries in the past.

Symptoms of Osteoarthritis

When you have osteoarthritis, it typically causes mild to severe soreness in one or more joints. You might also have tenderness when you put pressure on the affected joints. Other symptoms include joint stiffness, a restricted range of motion and the development of bone spurs.
