Over 3 million Australians live with osteoarthritis - but most are managing it the wrong way. This World Arthritis Day, take a moment to better understand your condition - because chances are, no one's told you what actually works. 

Many Australians are:

• Avoiding movement when exercising is one of the best ways to reduce pain.
• Taking opioids despite strong advice against their use for OA.
• Paying for costly injections that don't outperform salt water in clinical trials.
• Assuming surgery is inevitable, when it's not needed for most.
• Overlooking small changes that make a big difference.

These free, evidence-backed resources can help you reduce pain, move more freely, and protect your long-term quality of life.
