Experience Joint Pain Relief In Denver With McWhorter CNR

As we age, many people experience the degeneration of their joints. Our increasingly demanding lifestyles combined with overly sedentary habits means that most people will experience joint pain at one time or another in their life.

Understanding Joint Pain

Joint pain is complicated on the surface because of the intricate make-up of the joints in our body. Depending on your lifestyle, some joints will bear more wear and tear than others. A football player is likely to have more trouble with their shoulder and elbow joints while a gymnast may experience joint pain along their spine. That’s not to say that you have to be an athlete to suffer from this kind of pain - everyone is susceptible to this type of pain as they age and the cartilage protecting your joints will begin to deteriorate eventually.

What Causes This Type of Pain?

The potential causes of joint pain are extensive. From previous injuries to degenerative diseases, this pain can be caused by any number of conditions and injuries that affect the musculoskeletal system.

In many cases, the development of these degenerative conditions that lead to joint pain are genetic. In other cases, these conditions can be related back to lifestyle. It is important to identify the specific causes that could be leading to your pain, especially if it has to do with your lifestyle. You don’t want to go through any kind of treatment to relieve the pain without breaking the habits that put you in pain in the first place.

What Are The Symptoms?

Joint pain in and of itself is a symptom, often of something much bigger what’s at play. However, the actual sensation of the pain can present differently based on the individual. This means that recognizing joint pain for what it is can be challenging.

There are many structures that make up a joint, including the bones themselves, the ligaments, bursae, tendons, and cartilage. The intricate structure of a joint can make the symptoms of joint pain vary more than something like acute pain. Some of the most common symptoms include:

  • Redness
  • Swelling
  • Tenderness
  • Limited range of motion
  • Stiffness
  • Weakness

In most cases, the level of discomfort associated with joint pain can fluctuate from mild to severe and also be affected by external circumstances, including things like the weather, atmospheric pressure, and more.
