Arthralgia is pain in one or more of your joints. The pain may be described as sharp, dull, stabbing, burning or throbbing, and may range in intensity from mild to severe. There are many causes of arthralgia, including injury, infection, arthritis, and other ailments. The most common cause is arthritis, which is inflammation of the joints. There are many different types of arthritis.
Treatment for arthralgia will vary depending on the joint that is affected, the severity of the pain, and the underlying cause. Treatment will address the underlying cause and alleviate or manage symptoms. Minor arthralgia can be treated at home with over-the-counter medications that reduce pain and swelling, or by icing, taking warm baths, or stretching.
More severe cases of arthralgia may benefit from medical procedures, such as steroid injections, joint aspiration, or physical therapy.
Although life-threatening complications of arthralgia are rare, seek immediate medical care if you, or someone you are with, have joint pain due to injuries that involve profuse bleeding or tissue damage, severe joint pain, or high fever (higher than 101 degrees Fahrenheit).
Seek prompt medical care if you are being treated for arthralgia but mild symptoms recur or are persistent.
What are the symptoms of Arthralgia ?
The primary symptom of arthralgia is joint pain. The pain may be described as sharp, dull, stabbing, burning or throbbing. It may range in intensity from mild to severe. The joint pain may appear suddenly or develop and worsen over time.
How is arthralgia treated?
Treatment for arthralgia begins with seeking medical care from your health care provider. Treatment will vary depending on the joint that is affected, the severity of the pain, and the underlying cause. Treatment will address the underlying cause and will aim to alleviate or manage symptoms.
Minor arthralgia may be managed through a home care plan recommended by your heath care provider. Depending on the underlying cause, home care for arthralgia may include icing the joint or taking warm baths. Your health care provider may recommend that you limit activity or perform stretching exercises. If appropriate, over-the-counter medications may be used to reduce pain and swelling.
In some cases, physical therapy may be beneficial. Steroid injections are a common treatment for joint inflammation. If needed, fluid may be removed from the affected joint in a procedure called joint aspiration (arthrocentesis). Arthralgia due to a broken bone may require surgery or casting.
Arthralgia due to an infection in the joint may require surgery to clean out the infection, followed by antibiotics.
