Joint Pain
Joint pain is a common musculoskeletal complaint that can affect people of all ages, making everyday activities such as walking, exercising, lifting or even getting out of a chair uncomfortable. It may develop suddenly following an injury or gradually over time due to wear and tear, repetitive movements or changes in joint health.
