Question: Is there a cure for arthritis?

Dr. Ali Askari answers the question: 'Is There A Cure For Arthritis?'

Answer: There is no cure for arthritis. There is control for arthritis. And I always tell my patients that controllable arthritis is almost half of the battle, because we control the disease to the degree that patients feel very comfortable and get on with their lives.
