TREATMENT

Osteoarthritis is a degenerative disease with painful exacerbations. Treatment must therefore simultaneously control the pain and slow down the process of joint degeneration.

Today, new treatments are available that can counteract cartilage deficits, enhance the spontaneous repair processes and effectively control pain.

Depending on the extent and location of the disease, your Healthcare Professional will suggest the best course of treatment and make some suggestions as to how to improve your “lifestyle”, such as losing weight if necessary, and doing light aerobic exercise (swimming, aqua aerobics, cycling), which does not involve strain on the painful joint.
