According to the CDC, an estimated 58.5 million US adults have been diagnosed with some type of arthritis. Arthritis Awareness Month is observed every May, and it's a time to inform people about this complex group of debilitating diseases. The goal of this episode is to educate listeners about the impact of arthritis, how to promote lifestyle changes for prevention, and highlight the importance of research and support for those living with the condition.
To do that, we’re joined by Dr. Michael Kessler, Chief - Division of Hand & Elbow Surgery in the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery at MedStar Georgetown University Hospital.
