- Stiffness, especially after rest
- Reduced range of motion

What it involves
A combination of physiotherapy, medication, and lifestyle changes, with surgery considered only when these aren't enough.
What to expect
Most patients manage arthritis symptoms well for years with non-surgical treatment before joint replacement becomes necessary, if ever.
