Answer:
If you get a punch on the facade from someone, when do you feel the torment?
There is no cure for this. Arthritis is a degenerative joint disease. There are ways to slow it down - however, I wouldn't self diagnose, but stir to your doctor and if needed to a rheumatologist - NOT - an orthopedist.
Arthritis won't kill you but it is a distress, literally and figuratively.

This could be (not necessarily is,, but could be) any of the more than 100 different types of arthritis. There are also strictly orthopedic problems that could also be the answer here.
See your family doctor and start investigating. And if it is a form of arthritis, you requirement to begin accepting here and very soon that it is a chronic illness, near no cure. There are ways to manage it, but within is no cure.
