• What is arthritis?
• Arthritis is an inflammatory and degenerative
  disease that affects your joints and hinders
  movement. It leads to almost complete
  deterioration of the joints, which causes severe
  pain and inflammation.
• As the disease progresses, the bones in the joint
  endure severe wear and tear.
• Patients find it increasingly difficult to
  perform regular gross and fine motor activities.
• The disease is most common in
• Hips
• Hands
• Feet
• Knees
• Lower back

3

• Causes and risk factors of arthritis
• Age is regarded as the primary cause of
  arthritis. Other causes include
• Family history
• Autoimmune diseases
• Viral infections
• Occupational distress (job/sport that puts
  continuous pressure on joints)
• Risk factors
• Smoking
• Excessive weight/obesity
• Gender (women are more prone to arthritis)

• Symptoms of arthritis
• Every type of arthritis has different associated
  symptoms. The severity of the symptoms vary from
  case to case. The most common symptoms of
  arthritis are
• Pain
• Stiffness
• Localized redness around joints and limbs
• Tenderness and warmth in joints and limbs
• Localized swelling

5

• Common types of arthritis
• Osteoarthritis
• Most common form of arthritis, caused by the
  decline or loss of cartilage in the joints
• Juvenile Arthritis
• Corrupts the immune system (in children younger
  than 16 years) attacks the tissues surrounding
  joints
• Psoriatic Arthritis
• A type of inflammation that develops in patients
  with psoriasis
• Rheumatoid Arthritis
• Corrupts the immune system by making it attack
  the synovial membranes present in joints
• Ankylosing Spondylitis
• Affects the back, typically the lower back
  commonly referred to as arthritis of the spine
• Gout
• Results in the formation of hard crystals of uric
  acid in joints

• Mesenchymal Stem Cell Therapy for Arthritis
• At Plexus Bangalore and Hyderabad, we use
  mesenchymal stem cell therapy to help manage
  arthritis. Heres a look at its many benefits
• Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) exhibit
  anti-inflammatory effects that lower
  inflammation, thereby reducing joint pain and
  damage.
• Owing to their capacity to differentiate into
  various cell types, including chondrocytes, the
  cells that make up cartilage, MSCs help in
  cartilage regeneration
• MSCs can modulate the immune system and
  contribute to a reduction in the autoimmune
  attack on joint tissues.
• MSCs help improve the tissue in the synovial
  membrane, a tissue that lines the joints, thereby
  alleviating inflammation.
• By addressing inflammation and promoting tissue
  repair, MSC therapy helps reduce joint pain
  associated with arthritis.
• Improved joint function and reduced pain can
  enhance the quality of life for individuals with
  arthritis.
