Arthritis Treatment in Patna
Specialized physiotherapy programs to manage pain from osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis, reduce joint stiffness, and improve overall function and quality of life.
Reasons of Arthritis
Joint Weight Wear Over Time
Joint cartilage can wear down over time, especially in weight-bearing joints.
Old Joint Injury
Past injuries like fractures or ligament tears can lead to joint damage later.
Extra Body Weight
More weight puts more pressure on joints like the knees and hips.
Family History
Some people are more likely to develop arthritis because it runs in the family.
Autoimmune Disease
In rheumatoid arthritis, the immune system attacks the joint lining.
Weak Supporting Muscles
Weak muscles around the joint can increase stress and pain during movement.
How Physiotherapy Helps
Physiotherapy is a non-pharmacological approach to managing arthritis effectively. It focuses on improving function and quality of life.
- Pain Management: Using modalities and gentle exercise to reduce pain.
- Mobility Improvement: Exercises to maintain and improve joint flexibility.
- Strength Building: Strengthening the muscles that support the joint to reduce stress on it.
- Joint Protection: Educating patients on how to perform daily tasks without straining their joints.

- Reduces stiffness early: Regular guided movement helps stop joints from becoming more stiff.
- Protects daily function: Early care helps keep walking, stairs, and daily tasks easier.
