Have you been feeling joint pain lately? You're not alone. Joint pain is common and affects people of all ages. Some joint pain is mild and goes away on its own, but sometimes it can be chronic and very painful. At Divine Healing Chiropractic, Dr. Azien Mousavi finds out what is causing your joint pain and uses chiropractic care to help ease your discomfort.
Symptoms of arthritis
- ✓Joint stiffness that is worst after rest or first thing in the morning
- ✓A dull, achy pain that builds with activity and eases with rest
- ✓Reduced range of motion — difficulty fully bending, straightening, or turning
- ✓A grinding, creaking, or clicking sensation in the joint
- ✓Swelling or tenderness around a joint after use
- ✓Muscle tightness and guarding around the affected joint
Common causes

The basics
Understanding arthritis
Joint pain can happen for many reasons. Common causes include injury, overuse, and arthritis. Injuries like twisting your ankle or dislocating your shoulder can inflame and irritate surrounding tissues, leading to chronic pain. Overusing a joint or putting too much stress on it can also cause pain and stiffness. Arthritis, another common cause, happens when the cartilage that cushions your joints wears down, leading to pain and swelling.
Chiropractic care is a natural, non-invasive way to manage joint pain. By realigning your spine and improving your posture, a chiropractor can reduce pressure on your joints, easing pain and stiffness. Chiropractic adjustments also help fluid flow to your joints, promoting healing. Care can prevent future injuries and improve your overall mobility.
