Wow, thank you! I had to unlearn my previous understanding of arthritis. I used to think it was a disease of the bones in general, affecting any part, including the shaft. This was very helpful
You treat arthritis all the time and you dont even know what it is. Pretty funny. That's also what I think.
Arthritis is a bail out term used when doctors cant or dont want to try to diagnose.
That is what I have noticed. Maybe not everyone. But most.
I injured a pec tendon pressing weight that I am having a hard time to rehab and I get doctor's or therapists try to explain to me that I have arthritis.
Give me a break man.
Ill go somewhere else keep joking meds
I'm gonna save you some time. Start at one minute. Update, start at one1:20.
Not a useful vid. Pfft
My sister is suffering from this she has it everywhere my family is broken 😢
This is the usual explanation of "What is arthritis?" from the average medical doctor, which is incorrect. These people obviously are very average so you get their very average point of view. A more informative description of arthritis may be had by watching a video on here by Gregory Middleton MD & it sounds like it may a be far more accurate description.
I'm 25 years but tooooo much painful in my joint and back pain😔
I am a huge fan of you guys too- we always want our doctors to tell it like it is…..Youtube is now the ultimate research tool for the masses….
Never spend time with doctors who don't believe in your healing!
I'm 33 and recently am suffering from arthritis is many joints at once. One day I was fine then I suddenly started to notice burning sensation in my finger joints and toes. My knees start to play up if I walk to much. I was healthy before becoming a bus driver
Drs, I'm the one bone spurs – I've had osteoarthritis for years and I try to keep inflammation down tgrough diet, still continue walking and stretching, hydrate high with H2O, and I'd like to know what can expect to happen if I say either "No" to surgery or wait a few more years I'm close to "77" and I'm hesitating due to the fear of CRPS Neuropathic Pain spreading…..any input please. I see my Orthopedic Surgeon a couple days from now. Much appreciation, Ronnye love your interactive and fun style….Ronnye
Thank you! I've enjoyed your videos! Please answer if possible: Can "bone spurs" go away on their own without hip replacement surgery?
2 amateur comedians saying nothing.
I’m having issues with my upper body, mostly in my arms from the shoulders to the hands. I work pretty hard as I’m a hardscaper by trade. However when I was in high school I had most of my spine fused from my neck to my butt crack. I had a very severe kyphosis. It’s been about 13 years since my very first fusion and I’ve been active the entire time I used to even lift weights and all. Suddenly after a long day at work or something strenuous I’m in excruciating pain and discomfort the next day. This is a chronic and ongoing issue. The only way I can describe it is a very sharp pain when I move the affected area(s) and a dull constant pain at rest. My shoulders get the worst then my biceps and so on as you go down the arm from most to least painful. Doctors haven’t looked at my cervical spine for injury or anything but have looked at my shoulders and found little to nothing except worn down bursa. Would bursitis cause my hands and elbows to hurt? Do you think this problem sounds to be related to my spinal cord? Please help if you can. I just want to enjoy my time off from work instead any all time not spent working is spent icing my arms and hands or taking too much Tylenol. I have a poor quality of life because I’m in constant pain.
Hi! I’m a new fan!! I’m 48 years old and suffer with cancer😔 You’re videos help me understand what other people go through ❤

I'm 41 and just found out i have osteoarthritis through MRI?! I'm not overweight. I had no idea this could happen this early on. I do have knocked knee so possibly that accelerated the aging of the cartilage 😢

Can you get arthritis in your neck? I am constantly moving my head around to pop my neck because of discomfort and tension there. Could that be arthritis? Are there even joints in the neck? Maybe I am talking about the bones that go up the back of my neck… I'm obviously clueless. Thanks!
These guys are informative and entertaining. Kudos!

Have you got a video of kidney cancer? I just got diagnosed with it.
You guys are so good.
I was curious if you’ve ever heard of iron bone training? Repeating hitting a bone (specifically not the joint) to strengthen/build it like a muscle. Could that possibly cause arthritis? Thank you.
Excellent information!! Docs your both a phenomenal, my mom suffers from arthritis pain.
Here is an idea for video. I watched the video on "inflammation" but am still confused on the difference between arthrosis, arthritis, and inflammation.
I had shoulder pain and X-Ray report shows "mild shoulder arthrosis" which I assumed to be the same as shoulder osteoarthritis. An inflammatory condition commonly associated with aging and wear and tear. But googling shows arthrosis is NOT an inflammatory condition. Very confusing.

What is difference between arthritis and arthrosis?
Arthritis vs. Arthrosis. Arthritis is an inflammatory condition involving one or more joints throughout the body that causes pain, swelling and warmth in the affected areas. Arthrosis is a non-inflammatory degenerative condition associated with aging.

Some of my fingers are turning, yuck, is that arthritis?
