Show Notes

Osteoarthritis, the wear and tear inflammation of your joints, is so common that some research suggests half of us over the age of 65 will be affected. You've probably heard that movement is medicine, but how much movement? And while ibuprofen helps, is long-term use safe? What about all the weird and expensive treatment options? On this week's podcast, you'll meet a Professor and rheumatology expert whose work is focused on finding solutions for this common disease.

Listen and learn:

  • Which helpful medications might be approved
  • Risk vs reward of ibuprofen and injections
  • Joint distraction
  • Practical planning for managing your condition
