What are some treatments for osteoarthritis that work?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends what u mea!: The mainstay of treatment for osteoarthritis is anti-inflammatory medication. These medications relieve pain and stiffness, but do not prevent arthritis from getting worse. Maintaining a healthy weight, and getting regular exercise are also valuable.
