World Arthritis Day is an annual event held on the 12th of October. It was created to raise awareness about bone and joint diseases, such as arthritis, osteoporosis, and other conditions that can cause pain or disability. The day also serves to remind people of the importance of maintaining healthy bones and joints through exercise, nutrition, proper care for injuries, and regular check-ups with a doctor. World Arthritis Day encourages individuals to take action in protecting their health by understanding more about these conditions so they can better manage them if needed.
