Everything You Ever Wanted to Know about Shoulder, Hip and Knee Arthritis but Didn't Know What to Ask

A comprehensive guide to Shoulder, Hip, and Knee Arthritis written by three doctors. This book was written in order to help patients

suffering from arthritis-related discomfort of the shoulder, hip, and/or knee joints. This book is not intended to replace the very

important relationship between the patient and his or her doctor. This book is designed to assist with communication between patients

and physicians. Specifically, this book will enable patients to ask highly productive questions and obtain the most useful

information from their medical care providers (doctors, physicians' assistants, nurses, etc.) during their appointments or telephone

conversations. The book is organized to cover different aspects of these three areas of Arthritis and concurring treatments. There

may be some overlap of information within the chapters, which is due to the intertwining nature of various arthritis treatments. The

treatment options described in the book are the most up-to-date at the time this book was written. The reader should be aware that

our understanding of arthritis and treatment options is constantly expanding and some of the explanations and recommendations may be

out of date, even before the final publication process is completed. Nevertheless, our sincere hope is that this material will

provide important knowledge to a patient suffering from arthritis and will contribute to an improved quality of life.
