Inflammation of the shoulder

The shoulder is a compound joint consisting of the joint between the upper arm and the scapula (glenohumeral joint), the joint between the scapula and the clavicle (acromioclavicular joint) and the joint between the sternum and the clavicle (sternoclavicular joint).

Osteoarthritis of the Knee

Osteoarthritis of the knee joint causes stiffness in the knee and pain when walking. Knee osteoarthritis develops slowly. It often takes several years after the onset of pain before the osteoarthritis shows up on an X-ray.

Osteoarthritis of the hip

Osteoarthritis of the hip develops slowly and gradually worsens, and the pain is often insidious and increases gradually over time. It may start with pain in the groin, glutes, thighs and even knees, associated with physical activity. The stiffness increases more and more and is usually worse in the morning.
