Arthritis is a broad term encompassing various conditions characterized by joint inflammation and pain. While it can affect any joint in the body, it is particularly common in the knees, hips, hands, and feet. Although it can occur at any age, it is particularly prevalent among older adults because as we age, the cartilage that cushions our joints can wear down, leading to arthritis.
Anxiety is a common emotional state characterized by feelings of worry, fear, or unease. It can manifest in various ways, including physical symptoms like rapid heartbeat, sweating, and difficulty breathing. While a certain amount of anxiety is normal, excessive or persistent anxiety can significantly impact a person's quality of life.
