Which therapy will work best for you?

The answer depends on many factors, including your health, other medications you take, and whether your osteoarthritis case is mild, moderate or severe. The earlier you and your doctor work together, the sooner you can begin a treatment plan that is right for you.

Using the osteoarthritis self-assessment tool below can help you prepare to discuss your symptoms.
