Joint Pains

Pain is an unpleasant feeling or sensation caused by nerves and the brain. It sends out a signal that something may be wrong in your body. It can either be severe or long-term, depending on the problem that your body is going through.

Pain due to muscle and skeletal disorders, for example, is a known result of repetitive strain, overuse, and work. Injuries can cause pain in bones, muscles or surrounding tissue.

Sprains

A result of stretching and tearing of ligaments. This is often acquired through twisting and applying too much tension on ankles, knees, wrists, and other joints

Strains

An injury to muscles and tendons. It can range from a simple stretch to a partial or complete tear of muscles

Contusion

A bruise caused by a blow to the soft tissues such as muscles, tendons, and ligaments. Small amount of blood leaks into the tissues under your skin and are trapped which causes the change in skin color.

Tendinitis

A result of inflammation in the tendon or its covering, which is often caused by applying stress on the tendon repeatedly.

Bursitis

Caused by overuse and swelling of bursa, a fluid-filled sac between a bone and a tendon that prevents friction.

Stress Fractures

Caused by tiny breaks on the bone due to repeated stress. Stress fractures often happen in bones of the leg and foot.

Rheumatoid Arthritis

A disease that begins in the small joints of the hand and feet. It spreads to the larger joints, which triggers inflammation of the tissue, cartilage, and bone. It also causes abnormality in joints and disability.

Osteoarthritis

A disease caused by wear and tear in the joints over time. Often comes with aging and causes stiffness to knees, hips, fingers, and lower portions of the spine.
