Yes, physical therapy is often recommended to improve range of motion, strengthen muscles, and restore joint function, especially after injury or surgery.
If you experience sudden or worsening restriction in movement, especially with pain, swelling, numbness, or weakness, you should consult a doctor for diagnosis and treatment.
No, while aging can contribute to reduced flexibility, limited movement can occur at any age due to injury, overuse, neurological disorders, or autoimmune diseases.
Limited movement can be caused by arthritis, muscle stiffness, joint injuries, nerve problems, or inflammation. conditions like stroke or parkinson’s disease can also restrict mobility.
Treatment depends on the cause. it may include rest, ice packs, anti-inflammatory medications, antibiotics (if infection is present), or specific treatments for arthritis or gout.
In rare cases, redness around joints can occur due to allergic reactions to insect bites, medications, or topical products, but it is not a common cause of joint redness.
Seek medical attention if the redness is severe, accompanied by intense pain, fever, or you cannot move the joint. these may indicate an infection or acute inflammatory condition requiring urgent care.
Not always. while arthritis (especially rheumatoid or psoriatic arthritis) can cause red joints, infections (septic arthritis) or gout attacks can also lead to redness and swelling.

Gentle stretching, warm compresses, staying active, proper hydration, and over-the-counter anti-inflammatory medications can help reduce stiffness.
Yes, stiffness can sometimes occur without pain, especially after waking up or sitting for long periods. however, recurring stiffness without pain can still indicate an underlying issue.
If stiffness persists for more than a few days, worsens over time, affects daily activities, or is accompanied by pain, swelling, or fever, it's important to consult a doctor.
