Can I exercise with arthritis?

Yes, and it is one of the best treatments. Guidelines recommend exercise for osteoarthritis because it reduces pain and improves function. Choose low-impact options and strength work, and increase gradually.

For inflammatory types such as rheumatoid arthritis, exercise is also beneficial when it is well controlled, so check with your specialist about timing during flares.
