Arthritis encompasses over 100 different conditions affecting joints, each with unique characteristics and treatment requirements. Understanding your specific type is crucial for effective management.
Joints are where two or more bones meet, allowing movement and providing support. They consist of cartilage (cushioning), synovial fluid (lubrication), ligaments (bone connectors), and the joint capsule (protective covering). In arthritis, these structures become damaged or inflamed, leading to pain and reduced function.
While arthritis can affect any joint, it most commonly impacts weight-bearing joints like knees and hips, as well as frequently used joints in the hands, wrists, and spine. Our specialists conduct thorough assessments including physical examination, imaging studies, and functional testing to determine exactly which joints are affected and develop targeted treatment strategies.
Common sites affected by arthritis
Our expert team specialises in diagnosing and treating various forms of arthritis, each requiring a unique therapeutic approach for optimal outcomes.
The most common form, resulting from wear and tear on joints. Cartilage breaks down, causing bones to rub together, leading to pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility.
An autoimmune condition where the immune system attacks joint lining, causing inflammation, pain, and potential joint damage. Often affects joints symmetrically.
Affects people with psoriasis, causing joint pain, stiffness, and swelling. Can impact any joint but commonly affects fingers, toes, and spine.
A form of inflammatory arthritis caused by uric acid crystal deposits in joints. Causes sudden, severe attacks of pain, redness, and tenderness, often in the big toe.
Inflammatory arthritis primarily affecting the spine and sacroiliac joints. Can lead to fusion of vertebrae, causing reduced flexibility and hunched posture if untreated.
Many forms of arthritis share similar symptoms, making accurate diagnosis essential for effective treatment. Our specialists use comprehensive assessment techniques including blood tests, imaging, and clinical examination to determine your specific condition.
Book a thorough assessment with our arthritis experts to understand your condition and begin your personalised treatment journey.
Arthritis symptoms vary depending on the type and severity of your condition.
Recognising these signs early enables prompt treatment and better outcomes.
Accurately tracking your symptoms helps our specialists optimise your treatment plan. When monitoring your arthritis, note:
Rate your symptoms from 0 (none) to 10 (severe)
Keep a symptom diary to help identify patterns and triggers
Arthritis symptoms can develop gradually or suddenly, varying in intensity throughout the day. Early recognition and treatment can prevent joint damage and maintain quality of life.
While arthritis is typically managed with ongoing treatment, certain symptoms require urgent medical attention. If you experience any of the following, please contact our London clinic immediately or visit your nearest A&E:
