These are all signs of progressing joint disease that requires treatment.

The most common cause of joint pain is arthritis, a family of more than 100 diseases. Every type of arthritis has different contributing factors, but among the most common ones across many types of arthritis are:

The risk of arthritis generally increases with age. For example, osteoarthritis (the most common form) typically develops due to joint use over many years.

Extra weight stresses the joints and can cause them to break down faster. Weight is a significant risk factor for osteoarthritis.

Bone damage, like fractures, increases the risk of post-traumatic arthritis (a form of osteoarthritis), particularly if the bone didn’t heal completely or correctly. And very active people have an increased risk of osteoarthritis due to joint overuse.

Environment plays a role in some cases of joint pain, particularly conditions like rheumatoid arthritis. Although the precise cause of the disease is unknown, experts believe that people with specific genes are more vulnerable to germs that might trigger rheumatoid arthritis. Research continues.

Although arthritis is the leading cause of joint pain, many people who experience muscle, tendon, and ligament injuries also experience joint pain. Diseases like fibromyalgia can also lead to joint pain.
