In this brief presentation, Dr. Joshua John‑Ram Schacter explains that joint pain is often driven more by inflammation and the condition of the tissues surrounding a joint than by the joint structures themselves. He advises viewers to first address inflammation, adopt regular mobility, flexibility, and strength exercises, and ensure overall health is optimized before considering any surgical intervention.

So much of what affects our joints and our joint pain is actually the tissues and the conditions around the joint, not just the structures in the joint that can respond to surgical intervention. So I would urge you look into ways that you can lessen your inflammation. Look into exercises that can help you with your mobility, your flexibility, and your strength. And above all, make sure that you're paying attention to your own health before you consider a surgical intervention.
