Life With Chronic Pain

Chronic pain comes in many forms and can present itself in various parts of the body. Two of the most common forms are Arthritis and Tendonitis.

Arthritis  

Arthritis is one of the leading forms of chronic pain. There are over 100 different types of arthritis ranging from autoimmune diseases to normal joint inflammation. 
 

• 23% of all adults (over 54 million people) have arthritis  

• 1 in 4 adults have arthritis  

• 1 in 4 adults with arthritis reports severe joint pain  

• 24 million adults are limited in their activities from arthritis  
• 60% of US adults with arthritis are of working age (18 to 64 years).  

• Arthritis can limit the type of work they are able to do or keep them from working at all.  
• 8 million working-age adults report that their ability to work is limited because of their arthritis.  

• $303.5 billion is the cost of arthritis each year in medical spending and lost wages  

Tendonitis  

Tendonitis is when a tendon, the connective tissues between your muscles and bones, becomes inflamed or irritated. This can happen to any tendon in the body but we often see it around shoulders, elbows, wrists, knees, and heels. It typically occurs because of overuse or repetitions of a particular movement overtime. 

Common names for various tendonitis:  

• Tennis elbow  
• Golfer elbow  
• Pitcher's shoulder  
• Swimmer's shoulder  
• Jumper's knee 

The symptoms can include:  

• Swelling  
• Pain / Ache  
• Discomfort 
• Reduced Function

Nearly 3% of the U.S. population is affected by tendonitis. Anyone can get tendonitis but it is most common for those over the age o 40. Overtime tendons become less flexible and less elastic making them more susceptible to injury.
