Read MoreJoint pain can interfere with even the most basic tasks; walking, lifting, getting dressed, or simply enjoying your day. Whether your pain is sudden or has been building over time, you deserve fast, professional support. With virtual consultations, in-home provider visits, and tailored treatment plans, InMotion Health offers compassionate joint pain care that fits your lifestyle.
What is Joint Pain?
Joint pain refers to discomfort, aches, or inflammation in any part of a joint, where two or more bones meet. It may affect just one joint or multiple joints at once and can range from mild soreness to debilitating pain. While some causes are temporary, others may signal chronic conditions that need early treatment to avoid long-term damage.
How is Joint Pain Treated?
During your in-home or virtual urgent care visit, our experienced team will carefully evaluate your symptoms, review your medical history, and consider any recent activity or injuries that may be contributing to your discomfort. Based on this assessment, we may recommend over-the-counter or prescription anti-inflammatory medications to reduce pain and swelling.
To support healing and mobility, we might suggest at-home interventions such as braces or wraps, along with guidance on gentle stretching or rest. If further evaluation is necessary, we can provide referrals for imaging studies like X-rays or MRIs and connect you with specialists for follow-up care.
Symptoms of Joint Pain
Joint pain may present in a variety of ways depending on the cause. Common symptoms include:
- Swelling, redness, or warmth around the joint
- Stiffness or limited range of motion
- Aching or throbbing pain, especially with movement
- Joint tenderness or sensitivity to touch
- Clicking, grinding, or popping sounds when moving
Whether your pain is sharp, dull, or constant, we’re here to help you find relief fast.
What Causes Joint Pain?
There are many potential causes of joint pain. Some are temporary, while others are linked to long-term conditions. These may include:
- Injuries: Sprains, strains, or overuse
- Arthritis: Including osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, or gout
- Infections: Viral or bacterial infections that trigger inflammation
- Bursitis or Tendinitis: Inflammation of tissues surrounding the joint
- Autoimmune Conditions: Where the immune system attacks healthy tissue
Why is Joint Pain Treatment Important?
Ignoring joint pain can lead to worsening symptoms and decreased mobility. When left untreated, joint pain may mask serious underlying conditions like infections, autoimmune disorders, or degenerative joint disease. These issues can escalate, potentially resulting in permanent joint damage or even systemic illness.
Prompt treatment not only helps relieve discomfort but can also improve your overall quality of life and minimize downtime. It may prevent complications caused by inflammation or infection and supports faster recovery from injuries.
How Should I Support My Recovery From Joint Pain?
Our team will create a personalized care plan to address your specific symptoms and diagnosis. However, there are general guidelines that can support your recovery. You should avoid activities that aggravate or stress the affected joint and use ice or heat therapy as recommended to reduce inflammation and pain. Be sure to take all prescribed medications exactly as directed, and follow up with your provider if symptoms persist or worsen.
