A joint is where two bones meet in the body. Joint pain can be a result of injury or disease of the joint or surrounding tissues. Commonly affected pain areas include neck, back, hands, jaw, knees, ankles, hips and shoulders. Pain is also related to inflammation (arthritis), which is accompanied by local warmth, swelling, and tenderness. Depending on the nature and cause of pain, medications and even surgery may be required as part of the medical treatment. Learn more »
