Definition of Arthritis

Support to stay well
There is currently no cure for arthritis, but treatment and lifestyle changes can reduce pain, improve function and prevent further damage to the joint.
Your doctor may prescribe medicines to ease the pain and reduce inflammation. In some cases surgery may be recommended to replace a knee or hip joint. Lifestyle changes such as gentle exercise can relieve stiffness, reduce pain and fatigue, and also improve muscles and bone strength. Doctors may suggest low-impact aerobic activity, strength training and a range of motion exercises. Heat, ice, water and massage therapies may also help.
Fikados Healthcare services ltd can provide the services you need to manage your condition in your own home, avoiding the disruption of relocating to an assisted living facility. Together we create a care plan that focuses on the things that are important to you. Our high quality care and support is tailored to your unique needs, so you can enjoy the best possible quality of life.
