Causes of Arthritis

The causes of arthritis can vary, but commonly include:

Genetics: Certain genes can increase the risk of developing arthritis.
Injury: A joint injury or trauma can increase the risk of developing arthritis.

Treatment for arthritis depends on the underlying cause and severity of symptoms. Common treatments for arthritis include:

Medications, such as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) or corticosteroids, which can help to reduce pain and inflammation

Are generic medications safe?
Generic medication is simply a medication that has been manufactured by a different company, rather than the company who originally held the patent on the product. Generic medications work in the exact same manner as brand name medications and are bio-equivalent to their brand name counterparts.
