Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am 19 year old healthy young man but I ve always had a achey back. When I went to the doctor I talked to him about this I got Xray s done and he got back to me 2 days later saying that I have Arthritis in my back. How will this effect me later on in my life considering how young I am now.
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
Arthritis is a chronic disease which can be maintained under control through medication and physical activity. If you take care of yourself and do regular check ups it should not affect your future.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
Dr.Dorina Gurabardhi General &Family Physician
