Joint Pain Specialist in Bhubaneswar
Expert diagnosis & treatment for all types of joint pain — by Odisha’s leading rheumatologist. OARC, Bhubaneswar.
What is Joint Pain?
Joint pain (medically known as arthralgia) is discomfort, stiffness, or soreness in one or more joints — the points where two or more bones meet. It can range from mildly irritating to completely debilitating, affecting your ability to walk, work, and carry out daily activities. Joint pain affects millions across Odisha and is one of the most common reasons people visit a doctor.
At OARC, Bhubaneswar, our specialist team led by Prof. Dr. Jyoti Ranjan Parida provides accurate diagnosis and evidence-based treatment for all causes of joint pain — from common arthritis to complex autoimmune conditions.

Joint Pain Treatment
in Bhubaneswar
Effective joint pain treatment depends on finding the exact cause. At OARC, we use a systematic approach — advanced diagnostics, specialist assessment, and evidence-based therapies — to give you lasting relief rather than temporary pain masking.
Our Treatment Approach
- Accurate Diagnosis: Blood tests (RA factor, anti-CCP, ANA, uric acid), joint X-ray, ultrasound, MRI where needed
- Disease-Modifying Drugs (DMARDs): For inflammatory arthritis — methotrexate, hydroxychloroquine, sulfasalazine
- Biologic Therapy: Advanced biologics for RA, psoriatic arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis
- Anti-inflammatory Medications: NSAIDs, corticosteroids for acute relief and flare management
- Physiotherapy & Rehabilitation: Exercise programmes to restore joint function and prevent disability
