arthritis

Description

Arthritis is the classic stage play of pain performed in every joint from knee to fingertip, starring inflammation with a flair for heat and swelling. This self-centered star monopolizes the stage, reducing its audience—our bodies—to sluggish motion. Unlicensed repeat visits from the guest of pain drag us nightly into an inferno called “coexistence.” Over-the-counter remedies serve only as temporary ceasefires; ice and heat treatments are mere consolation prizes. With aging, overwork, or immune system mischief, a chaotic collaboration of factors paints each twinge with unique shades. Doctors issue certificates of legitimacy—diagnoses—and patients brandish them as shields of excuse. Everyday stairs transform into ascetic trials; the sofa becomes a cold bleacher seat.
