Joint Pain & Arthritis Treatment in Johor Bahru

Sakit Sendi & Artritis

Joint pain and arthritis are leading causes of disability, especially among Malaysia's ageing population. Osteoarthritis (wear-and-tear) is the most common type, affecting knees, hips, and hands. Rheumatoid arthritis (autoimmune) and gout are also prevalent. Proper diagnosis is essential because different types of arthritis require different treatments.
