#MOVEMENT IS LIFE

Arthritis affects more than 180 million people in India and its prevalence is much higher than many well-known diseases such as diabetes, AIDS and cancer. But the awareness about this ailment is very low when compared to other degenerative diseases.

Dr. S. Arumugam Senior Orthopedic Consultant and Surgeon of Chennai Ortho has initiated the Movement is Life campaign with an aim to spread awareness about arthritis and the ways to manage it.

The campaign advises the audience to take up movement in their day-to-day life. Activities such as running, swimming and cycling are some of the best ways to prevent or manage Arthritis and joint-related problems effectively. Keeping your joints healthy and how to do so is the message of the campaign.
