• Contrast bath---It is a form of treatment where a limb or the entire body is immersed in warm water followed by the immediate immersion of the limb or body in ice water. This procedure is repeated several times, alternating hot and cold. Note that the treatment should always end in the ice water, as heat will induce the body's inflammatory response, while cold helps to decrease inflammation.

Hi Sir! As per your age profile, likely differential diagnosis can be from several different forms of arthritis involving various small and large joints. If there is a typical history of multiple small joints involved with stiffness and morning back pain, might be due to an underlying rheumatoid arthritis or if it is in a single joint for example the knee, more probability is in tge favor of osteoarthritis. Please consult your orthopaedic doctor for appointment or let us know in a personal consultation regarding further reports n xrays.
